in march this year mark went on an adventure to find Peru's
long winding lefts and we found not just waves:
we met amazing people, who were more than helpful to make
sure we have an amazing trip, visited impressive pre inka sites,
strolled through markets loaded with fresh fish and tropical fruit,
had fantastic meals, road trip adventures and most importantly
we found the longest lefts I ever surfed which made my legs hurt 
as much as my arms. 

The only downside was the bad photographic light caused by
the daily mist creeping over the hills, but I think the lack of stunning
good surf shots and the quite barren coastline may be one of the reasons
 why you can still find some world class uncrowded waves there.

I will definitely be back in Alpakka land one day...

winter walkies





a nice run of pumping surf and sunshine mid february made me feel spring arrived early..
it didn't last for long and soon was followed by a week of freezing cold pumping surf.
So cold though that I binned the dawny and went for a nice early morning walk through the beautiful frosty countryside near Newlyn East instead..
