Travel and Scuba Specialist

David credits "Seven miles an hour" by Don Wallace and to the wonderful vacations with his wife Kinga with opening his eyes to the world beyond the shoreline. After moving to Florida from Illinois he began to spend virtually all his leisure time finding new adventures that involved traveling to new destinations. He is the co-owner of Deep Water Travel and also enjoys teaching scuba. When he's not off on an exotic vacation that includes scuba diving, you can find him teaching scuba classes or playing softball.
