Andalusian flavour Dec/Jan






Pay attention! Surfers passing the road.
Back in El Palmar...
Far away from any plans,  my way goes back to Andalusia.
One more time in my life, I got to know that plans can be good, but never sure if they are working out.
Travaling between Europe and Africa has its limits...and my limit for 2016 was achieved.
And only chance was turning back...visa trouble with my moving house. 
Primarily, I was stressed so much about this! 
Missing my job about that, I had to think about a plan B.
Till then, had to spend some days close to the boarder and tried to see the things positive.


Because...everything has its reasons!
And for sure it was like that.


First of it all, I was supposed to enjoy the wonderful water conditions which was given to me.


Early morning check number one: good surf...let´s jump in the water!


Several morning, mid times, afternoon or sunset sessions filled up my days and let the time between christmas an new year proceeded.
Family in Germany, friends at Fuerte and the love in Morocco...
However, I was here and get back into soulstyle.


More surprisingly, I should become a happy girl, while wind passing by from east directions...Levante was on!
And moments of windsurfing coming back to me.


During the last year possibilities make me focus more on the surf and the windsurf was a forgotten child.



But not at this place.


Anyway, lets go floading and flying again!
It was great :-) 
Perfect mix of surfing and windsurfing passing my days.


Early check again...


Still time, waiting for the right tide...meditation and yoga was best solution before breakfast and surfing.





Sunset surfs ...giving awesome vibes!





And the flow of life slowly was coming back to me.



But hey, some visit of an old known fellow student and his girl, after 6 or 7 years, gave me support to change the new years eve and two days more.


And what shall we do?...Give a try for surfing :-)



Sucsessfully, they get their first introduction.


And the first feeling of a blue wave let the virus grow ;-)...welcome into surfers life! 






Again windy days...but my gear was not complete. My biggest sail still broken, I hesitated to go out with this low wind conditions. 
Waves have been small and wind direction perfect to check the beachbreak of El Plamar...
One more time, I had a chance...my visit borrow me the size I was missing and I could give a try.


Struggeling a lot with low and gasty wind, I catched two waves, before the wind completly droped.





Campers paradies...during the low season, it is so relaxed here to stay, I only love it!



More yoga for inner balance and improving flexibilities...


Helpful for surfing ...that is sure!


Wind again ...heading 10 min. by car to the windsurf paradies.









An other great session with strong winds and small waves...but perfect for me.



Two times bigger swells hitting the coast, not my level...times to complete plan B!





New sandbanks, new luck! Perfect waves...





Night fellows in the surfers shared house of Intoo Surf. 
Every day welcome, I spended several evenings in the cozy atmosphere, with nice people and incredible kitchen. 
It seems like I should seal the cooperation for my up coming"june girls event" 2017.
And get to know the warm and welcoming home for surfers in El Palmar.
Only can recommend this place, if you are looking for a fitting accomodation for a surf in the south of spain!

Camping grounds with new german, french and spanish contacts...
Good times...but it´s time to move again.



Me, sitting again at the beach, finding my inner decision about going left or right...
I hate the moments of making decisions...but that´s what the life is about too!
Heart or head? Easy or difficult? 
Like many times before, this time beeing alone again and going out for surfing and windsurfing alone in unknown conditions, let me grow and fight not necessary fears. 
Back to the peace of mind...
Yallah...go south again and don´t fear about nothing!
