In this podcast, I will be interviewing travel/adventure writers and athletes as well as people who worked for resorts, hotels, cruise ships and airlines and we’ll talk about their experience in travel and tourism.
My guest today worked for Club Med from 1988 to 1994. His first season was at Club Med Turks and Caicos as a Scuba G.O., and he was hired right off the beach; later, he became a Chief of Scuba. He was born in England and raised in Rhodesia (later Zimbabwe). He now calls Vancouver Island home, and he is here to tell us about his amazing story.

Martinique
In this episode, I take you on an in-depth journey through my season at Club Med Martinique with Chef de Village extraordinaire, Denis Amsellem, where I was a Polyvant Landsports G.O. I share some hilarious stories, often at my own expense, and reflect on the incredible G.O.s I had the privilege of working with. This marked my sixth official season at Club Med. Included in this episode is the Chief of Sports stage I took part in as part of this season.

Dean Bernal
My guest today first arrived at Club Med Eleuthera in 1986 as a Scuba G.O. If you were a G.O. at Club Med during the '80s or '90s and his name doesn't immediately ring a bell, you'll almost certainly know him as the man behind the longest-lasting documented human-dolphin relationship in recorded history. If you were there, chances are you saw the two of them swimming and playing together. Because his story is truly one of a kind, we're splitting our conversation into many interviews. In the first, we'll dive into his Club Med experience at Eleuthera. In the second, we’ll talk about his time at Club Med Turks and Caicos, and in another interview, we'll explore his extraordinary bond with JoJo the dolphin. Joining us from California, please help me welcome the one and only, Dean Bernal!! **My First Season podcast has always been ad-free and free to listen to and is available to download on: Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Samsung Podcasts, Podbean App, Podchaser, Spotify, Amazon Music/Audible, TuneIn + Alexa, iHeartRadio, PlayerFM, Pandora and Listen Notes.
