ABOUT ME

Some have said that I seeking inspiration, help, or advice. I finally decided to own that role and be intentional about it. I started writing about my passions, my thoughts, and curious wonderings about our world. I founded Only100Yrs with a mission to give others a taste of what goes on in my mind, and to allow others to follow me on my adventures.

Take some time to explore the blog, read something interesting, and feel free to reach out if you would like to collaborate, give some feedback, or to just say hey.

WHAT EXACTLY IS FREEDIVING?

Freediving is diving on breath-hold as has been done in ancient Greece, Japan, Hawaii, and south-east Asia for thousands of years for collecting food, pearl diving, sponge diving, etc. In modern sport, athletes compete for time underwater, distance underwater, or depth achieved.  Depth disciplines are practiced in the sea, whereas time and distance events are held in a pool and known as Indoor Freediving. 

Why did you move to Spain and how did you start Freediving?

What does Only100yrs mean?

A gentle reminder that a human only has 100 years on this planet.

Most of us won't have that much, and the years will fly.   Make the time you have count. Make every day count. 

I went to Spain on vacation and the situation snowballed into a job offer. 11 years later, I'm still here. In 2015 I joined a Meetup group to go snorkeling on the coast and long story short, one of the girls convinced me to sign up for a freediving competition because they needed more female participation. I ended up getting a silver medal with a static of a little over 3 minutes and a bronze medal in Dynamic No Fins and the hook was set.
