The Surf Experience

Millie grew up landlocked but Cornwall has been home for the last few years. She stopped off at Surf Ex during a road trip and by the time she made it home, she was pretty much booking her flight back out for the season. She learned to surf in St Agnes when she was 15 years old. Millie has been working as an instructor in Portugal for a year and a half.

Mark Windsor was from Cornwall and he came to Lagos on a surf holiday and came again a few times and decided the sun and heat are better than the clouds and cold.

Sarah Hardie was from Swansea, South Wales. She had a surf holiday here in Lagos back in 2012, and she thought ten days just was not enough. Sarah learned to surf at Llangennith beach when she was 18 years old. She has been working as an instructor in Portugal for three years.

Igor has always been fascinated by big words, freedom, and goodness especially. What does it mean to be free and be a good person? He now knows that while the answer to those two questions cannot be known but must be felt, the questioning itself is a powerful force that gives his life meaning and direction. Being able to question life without anxiety opens him to meet the experience with a child’s curiosity and keeps him present.

Jenny did her first meditation retreat when she was 22 and she understood that she was not alone in her pain, that she was ultimately responsible for her own happiness. Many years later, she has chewed, swallowed, and occasionally spit out many teachings and ideas but she is still fascinated by what, why, and how she does it and what happens next.
