A camping holiday is amazing, you have the freedom to go wherever you want, whenever you want. No hotel check in and out times, no one watching your every move, just you and the nature around you.

A French Road Trip
With the Quiksilver and Roxy Pro on over at Hossegor this past week, I couldn't help but feel a little pang of jealousy of those over there. I've been back only a week... Actually maybe 2 now? Anyway, regardless, those beach breaks are calling me, (not the 6ft heavy bombs, just the 2-3ft beachies ha!) just one more surf in my summer suit, followed by crawling back onto the beach with spaghetti arms and the biggest grin on my face. Followed by an afternoon of lazing in that autumn sunshine whilst munching on picnic goodies. I can't complain too much, seeing as the weather and surf have actually been pretty fun back at home, but still. I'm just saying, I absolutely loved France!

My Favourite Surf Edits #1 Emerald Odyssey
I came across this video a few months ago and instantly fell in love with it. I'm not a massive surfer groupie, I don't follow the tour like I should. But when I see a video that's so fresh, inspiring and different, I really want to share that with everyone else.
September Goals And Another Yoga Video For Surfers
I just stumbled upon this interview from Cooler Mag with the inspiring Lucy Foster Perkins. This woman just makes me want to go and live the nomadic existence I've always dreamed of but have felt too ashamed in achieving it. Possibly, a life that seems too easy to others? But regardless, it's one that would make me incredibly happy, and what does it matter what other people think of you?
Sunny Days, Calm Waters
During the past few weeks the waves have been virtually non-existent and the ocean has been flat (as I mentioned in my yoga for surfers post). However, in times like these, you have to look on the bright side of things. Fortunately for us, that wasn’t too hard at all, as no swell meant… GREAT weather!
Home Grown Strawberries
Seeing as my beautiful, succulent, beastly strawberries featured in a little preview in my previous blog post about yoga for surfing I thought I would give them a whole post just to themselves. This is purely because they are just too delicious (also pretty easy on the eye) to leave out and not give them any credit for being so damn tasty!
Yoga for Surfing (Peace of Mind & Body Too!)
There’s nothing more frustrating than there being no surf, a flat as a pancake ocean with only ripples left for the foreseeable future.
Wellawaya to Buduruwagala
After the swell had failed produce the goods down on the South coast we decided to see more of the country and experience the beauty of Sri Lanka's hill country and its vast tea plantations.
Mirissa Surf & Storms
We managed to get a few good surfs in in Mirissa but it didn't take long for it to get crowded on this short right-hander. When the line-up got too busy and the storm clouds started rolling in, I opted out and left Matty in there so I could take a few snaps.
Weligama Sunsets
After attempting to discover some waves, a group of us eventually stumbled across Weligama when cruising down the coast in a couple of tuk tuks, with our boards haphazardly strapped to the roof.
