When he was 21 years old he had a motorbike accident since that time he has been paraplegic.\u00a0 12 years later Frank came in contact with diving for people with a disability and decided to try it out and since that time he\u2019s addicted to it. Dive trips abroad are usually 3 to 4 times a year out of Europe where it&#8217;s nice and warm. Frank checks the location to see if it&#8217;s accessible for people in wheelchairs and then can start to plan his trip. If it&#8217;s possible he will return with a whole group later in the year including between 3 and 6 people with a handicap and also the carers or partners. This time he stayed and dived with us at Asia Divers\/El Galleon Dive resort. He enjoyed the different types of diving here and the wonderful marine diversity. It was a bit of a learning curve for all of us here, but were looking forward to make the resort more accessible so Frank and a group will be able to come over later in the year. Congratulations to Frank who did his 800<sup>th<\/sup> dive on this holiday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was a pleasure to have Frank Devriese 53 from Belgium with us recently.
