Canary Islands...

Yep, by now you probably all know that I´m spending the week in Lanzarote, which is one of the Canary Islands just off the coast of Morocco. We are staying in Club La Santa, which is a humungus sport complex on the nort of the island. This place is amazing, I´ve never been or even heard of any hotels like that... people actually come here to do sports! Not the "I´m on vacation and I might do some sports" kind of way, but the "I wanna spend a week working my ass off and I might enjoy a bit of vacation while I´m at it kinda way". There are a lot of professional athletes, and very dedicated amateurs but you can forget cute bikinis and pareos... everyone is in workout gear 24/7! Ok there might be some bikini time as well, but it´s really about fitness here and these people mean FITNESS! So much motivation and inspiration! I actually started to take windsurfing classes!!!! I M IN LOVE!!!!!!!! Never thought that I´d enjoy it so much, especially in icy waters and stormy winds but next to snowboarding I think I´ve found a new fave sport! ;) I also do some other classes like spinning, yoga... etc and try to be very healthy and eat all the good kind of foods! ;) Oopps... which reinds me I gotta get going to my next class! ;) More from the island coming soon! Kisses!

Surfin´

One of the advantages of staying in a sport hotel in Lanzarote was that there are an abundance of beachsport we could try during our stay. Since forever I wanted to try surfing and I had quite the intensive training (and I have some bruises to prove it! ;)). To summarize the experience in one word it´s SUPERCOOL!!!!! It´s a bit like snowboarding on water! I´ll probably never be as good of a surfer as snowboarder but hey, now that I live close to a beach I might get to practice surfing as well and who knows... I´ve found a new love for sure! I´m becoming a surfer chic! ;)

P.S: Yep! That tiny windsurfing ant on the pic is meeeeee! ;D
