Living the life of Lockdown In Tioman Island :)

Hi Everyone.. Are you still alive? hehehe OMG that's a bad joke during this hard time..

I'm so sorry i don't mean any harm.

Currently I'm in Tioman Island, Malaysia. Stuck here for Lockdown. There is no ferry to go in and out from the Island and I haven't been able to go diving nor to the dive centre to work :(

I'm missing the ocean very very much.. but due to saving people lives, we cant complain yah... I hope you all are doing great in other part of the world.

As for me... now on phase 3 of lockdown. That means we have done 4 weeks in total of lockdown. We are just entering the 5th week. I've been working out at home having my routine. Check out my video I've made to share with you during the lockdown. Hope it inspires some of you... :)

During this hard time, I also want to try and expand my knowledge social media skills as I'm a person who are handling that besides Rosie Cotton who is the owner of the dive centre Im working at currently. Well due to lockdown, we are only allow to work at home "remotely". So Social media is everything. At this same time.. always thinking about ideas how to teach virtually.

We have two dive master in training here that we have been conducting through varies app like WhatsApp, Zoom, Skype. Thank God the internet here at the island is not too bad.

The island is more likely empty. From live youtube local new channel that I've been watching, there are about 200++ tourists stuck here. The government has been great! They given out different kind of help to the citizen and not to forget the foreign workers and business owner to help them financially during this COVID 19 lockdown. The police have been great too and check on the tourist here to ask if they need help financially or need help to arrange Flight back home... :) Which is.. i think it is sooooooo amazing!

Tioman Island is so beautiful. You must come and visit me here and dive at Tioman Dive Centre. Don't forget to hola at me!!!

Remember, even at the darkest night, you will see the light of the moon. We are on the same boat! Be kind to one another. Till then. LOVE, MEL
