Interview with Arya Hintsala

Off Gassing: A Scuba Podcast

Originally from Finland, Arya Hintsala made a quick detour to Bali while en route to Australia. What began as a surf vacation, led her to enroll in an Open Water Course. After a few skills, she knew this was something she needed to pursue. Leaving her job at the foreign ministry, she quickly immersed herself in this newfound passion traveling to different destinations teaching, and guiding. The complexity, skill, and challenging aspect of technical diving appealed to her, so naturally, she found her way to the Yucatan in search of a higher level of training. Here she would be introduced to Natalie Gibb and Under The Jungle and once again, her path would be altered. Please enjoy.
Ojamo Mine Update:
For many years Sami Paakkarinen and others have been working hard so that everyone can dive in Ojamo again and this summer they took a significant step towards it as they signed the land lease agreement between the city of Lohja and Ojamo Kaivosukeltajat ry, the cave diver's association formed to try and open Ojamo for everyone. There are still some details to finish up but Ojamo is open and we're busy diving it!!
