Koh Tao Diving Instructor Nicki gets a tattoo by TLC Discovery Channel's Miami Ink
Following up on our previous story of the Miami Ink guys joining us for a few days to enjoy scuba diving Koh Tao, Simple Life dive instructor Nicki shares her story of getting a tattoo by Chris Núñez of Miami Ink.
"Whist hanging out with the guys after diving in Koh Tao and spending some time with them - I was asked if i would like to be tattooed - and oh yeah did I, after all these guys are supposed to be the best right?

They had really enjoyed the day out diving in Koh Tao and wanted to give something cool back - so a tattoo it was.
Chris Núñez did a few sketches and designed me an awesome piece. The next day I met the guys and they took me to the resort to get inked. I had 5 hours sitting and a lot of pain, but it was all worth while!

My tattoo is really beautiful and colourful, a lotus flower with water and movement.
I can't dive now for a while and i'm still sore but if you want to check out the finished piece drop into Simple Life Dive Shop on Sairee Beach Koh Tao and see me.... after all I am now The Dive Instructor to the stars!"
