RE: Holliday in Thailand

in #thailand7 years ago (edited)

I'm an underwater swimmer and this is what helps me the most. I am not swimming now - no pool. I need one at my next stop. I just had a great pool in Kuala Lumpur. Here's me filmed by my son in California.

If I do this 2-4 times a week, I get better. I need a no chemical pool or I have to goop up and suit up to protect from chlorine. But so many pools here are clean!

I can do it either way or an ocean is fine if clean and pretty warm. I can do a wet suit. I'm a swimmer since birth and so is my son. I have a ton of writing published on it and Swimming is just my thing.

I know people who have done really well with various methods all over the spectrum. It's what you and your body can do and tolerate. All trial and error. I'm in a good 80 fb groups about it. It's highly common in the us so I got out and improved and now I'm stable but not strong.

I was thinking you are just on vacation. Do you live here in Thailand now?

I roam and stay where I feel comfortable which can pretty much be anywhere. I like everything as long as there is a bed and a roof and wifi ---- and supposed to be a pool but I lack right now.

I love your youtube videos! You are like a fish in water :D I have to learn that underwater swimming. You really need a good pool available. I do not live here, just holliday but would not mind staying for a month or two. The pools here at the hotels do not have that much clorine in them, I do not like chlorine eighter, feels very unhealthy.

Thank you! I love swimming like this. I had to go underwater because slapping the surface is too hard for me with my joints. Kicking on the surface hurts. So I spent a long effort to learn this and I teach it to others on my website and sometimes in person. I'm not the only person who hurts while swimming.

I was a water baby and never grew out of it. If I can swim anywhere - that's where you will find me if you need me :)

My plan has worked a couple times. I find people who need help I can offer and have a pool. I swim and they don't! I have had great pools and the people never use them! But for me - a pool outside the door will definitely be mine.

This is one I had in California. So nice and salt water! They would turn on the waterfall just for me lol. That was actually a good massage for me even though I was wiped the next days.

Isn't that awesome! The duck is as big as my head and that thing is deep and big. The door to my little house was only 50 meters away.
