Success Stories
I was nervous to surf. I was scared and unsure. But after getting into the water I was mesmerized. It was the first thing in my life that just felt right. The waves were heavy and big. They held power. They could pull you under. But they held beauty and serenity as well. On my first try I stood up and every time after that too. Surfing was one of the most amazing experiences of my life and I hope to try it again sometime soon.

as in with a surfboard, not the internet..
Summer 02' with my family & the Wrights.
i don't need to get good at it. i just want to try it. i'd like to stay up for more than a second, maybe even go over a wave of some little size...but trying looks fun enough.----------so ziplining in the rainforest is only the second coolest thing i've ever done, because this is THE coolest thing ever. i caught the first wave i tried! i thought i was a natural, but nineteen attempts later i decided it was just luck, because i only caught a total of two waves and i couldn't tell you how i did it...but it's SO much fun! totally worth anyone trying even just once.
I think everyone has thought about surfing at some point in their life. I've always thought that a surf board also amplified a girl's appearance. I decided in the Summer of 2012 to rent a house down at the Jersey Shore (Bradley Beach) and take up surfing.

Surfed in Bali. Great fun :)
Went to amazing Rincon, Puerto Rico (can get steak on a stick, bread, and a bottle of water for 3 bucks) and learned to surf. Waves were from 6 to 10ft so nothing crazy, but it was great to check something off the list. Now I want bigger waves, Hawaii here I come.

I went surfing with my two bestfriends near San Clemente Peir in California
Mi primera vez surfeando fue en Puerto Escondido en Playa Carizalillo con Piña <3
I did it. Loved it!!! Cried even. Took a private lesson in Honolulu, HI before my flight home from work. One of my most amazing experiences of my life.

This was pretty awesome: I went with my dad to Costa Rica on a yoga retreat, but at this school they had other things you could learn how to do and one of them was surfing so I thought, "Why not?". Well, that was certainly a lot of physical activity for the week, but totally worth it definitely! My goal for the week was to just stand up on the board once and I did that on the first day! True, I may have only stood up and rode a wave once or twice each day after that, but my dad did manage to catch this picture of me:

It's probably not something I would have tried otherwise, so I am really glad that the opportunity not only fell into my lap, but that I took it!
