A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions. - Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Well actually trying new things is part of my routine, and if it's a new sports activity then I take to it like a duck to water. Today I made my very first windsurf experience ever, and I can tell you that I had a real blast!
Winds are blowing strong on the isle of Lanzarote lately, so one needs to adapt their habits to the weather conditions.
C'mon, let's do some windy magic!
Learning from the best!
Lucky me, Canary Islands are a windsurfer's paradise, and there are a lot of professionals teaching us newbies here.
Someone recommended me to go check the PRO Center from Antxon Otaegui, the ex European windsurf champion.
That was a good choice!
They offer high quality equipment and a great personal support. There was one more rookie in my today's group, and both of us had quite a good start, even though this was our very first time windsurfing.
Go check my very first time setting sail!
I hope you enjoyed the little excursion as much as I did!
Today's session was a test run, but since I had a lot of fun doing is I'll definitely start a complete training course now.
If you ever traveled to Lanzarote and wanted to go try windsurfing, I'd highly recommend you to go check the PRO Center Antxon Otaegui: professional equipment and nice people!
Remember: Make a habit of trying new things, it'll keep you alive!
