Hey there what´s up? Long time no news. I just came back from my annual summer trip to the Atlantic Coast. I went there 3 weeks ago on my own to catch up with Lisa. She arrived 10 days earlier for the Les Ettes Girlie Camp. The first week we spent at the amazing flat with ocean view of Anne-Flore and David to hang out and surf together. I haven’t experienced such good waves in Hossegor in summertime. It was just awesome – check the pics! On my third day the waves were pretty huge and Lisa and I got caught by the strong current which took us out to the open water. We’ve already seen ourselves getting rescued by a heli, but luckily we made it back into the ultimate line up and took a really nice wave all the way back to the beach. Stoked! For the second week we went to Sopelana/Bilbao (Spain) to visit another friend, Rene, who’s doing a skate/surf camp over there. He offered us a spare tent, jammy food and a good company. The waves were still kind of perfect. At the end of the week the swell changed and we were more concentrating on the huge shopping malls in Bilbao. After one week of camping we were looking forward to sleep in a bed again. Our next destination was Biarritz, where another really good friend is based for the summer, Aline! (you should know her from my previous blogs). Good to have friends spread over the whole world! :-) Thanks, guys! The waves got pretty tiny so we worked more on our tan. The last days before leaving back home we had epic surf sessions again. Satisfied and with a big smile I´m back in rainy Innsbruck. What’s next? Dunno….
