feel like summer!

Just two days ago I lakes about the awful weather that was making me become so sad... but now the storm has leaved and Spring is arriving at last. I'm getting so happy! The day is light almost until seven and the temperature is getting higher. And this reminds me that Summer comes after Spring! And this Summer I'm going to Ireland for two weeks :) 

Last year I went there for seven days, and they were the best in Summer. So I've decided to return there and this time, for two weeks! I'll go with Nil, as last year, but probably with another friend Marcel. And I have to say that we've arranged the dates to meet there our italian friends and Zosia, the polish one. We're so excited to see them again, and also very happy to continue learning surf, spoken English and of course having a loooot of fun.
I hope this year we will meet a lot of new people and trip to wonderful places such as cliffs and amazing landscapes. I know that it is impossible to repeat last year's experience, so I'm wondering to make it even better, meeting new friends, learning new things and going to different places. 


At last I just want to tell you that if you have the chance to travel abroad, don't think it twice! It is incredible. And it is as easy as looking for interesting trips around Europe in the network!!

keep sailing...

This is the third post about sailing, and it won't be the last one. My intention is to keep you in contact with my sailing experience. Today I'm going to talk about the racing calendar. 

At first it could seem very hard, because I have only a free weekend a month. But once you're in, you don't need a pause, you want more and more. 

Nowadays I have about two training weekends per month and a race. However, we have several races which last for two weekends like the catalonian championship, which was this two last weekends, or the spanish championship which lasts four consecutive days. This weekend I went to the second part of the catalonian championship, and I did it quite well (in my opinion). It was a hard race. Specially last Saturday, which was windy and super cold. The wind was completely frozen and the sea even more. 

But... now that the exams have already passed I have time to think of the future, and in two weeks I'm going to Villa García d'Arousa to compete in the nation championship. It lasts for four days, but we're going there a few earlier to train and pass the material controls. So we're going at least eight days, two for journeys and six for sailing. I'm very excited because it is the first long race I'm going to without parents, with plane and... a lot of friends! It sound great. :)

Well, I'll explain that race once being there and I will tell you all the details! ;)
