Underwater Christmas Presents

I live in the Philippines, which is the most Christmas-excited country in the world. Department stores start playing Christmas music in September. The sales ladies start wearing Santa Claus hats at about the same time. But even if you are not in the ‘Pinas and if you celebrate Christmas, you will want to get cool stuff for your family members and for some dear friends. What better way to shop for Christmas presents than to support the artist ,,, me.

I wrote two books in recent years, about gobies, an amazing group of very biodiverse (huge number of species) small fishes with curious twists to their natural histories, and one about what happens to your body, and especially to your brain, when you scuba dive or freedive. Here they are:

The Lives of Gobies

Support the Channel!

Another way to support the artist (me) is to directly support my YouTube channel, by sending SuperThanks for my videos. This doesn’t give you anything concrete to give to your kids or uncles, but it’s a good deed for Christmas, and gives me the chance to make more documentaries like the one below:

The video below gives you a little tour of Pinspired:
