The last 5 days have been filled with absolute non stop go cat go. Not today though. I am taking what Jim calls a culture day which is something I never do. We are a little over an hour away from the Pacific so I am taking culture in my world of culture. I’m checking the surf. Guatemala is not a surf destination, but are you kidding me, it’s on the Pacific coast. I started looking on goggle at the coastline and realized where we are located is close to the best possible area for waves. If there’s surf I can sniff it out. So Makko and I headed out on safari. What I found was a diamond in the rough. If you think I’m gonna expose this spot you are absolutely crazy. The surf world is getting smaller and when you find good waves off the beaten track it’s best to keep it to yourself and let the others find it he way you did. I was not able to surf but the waves were good. I talked to Peruvian surfer at a surf hostel and he really shared with me some of his secrets. All he asked was please don’t share. He was the first to surf this area 13 years ago and never went back home and Peru has some of the best point breaks in the world. No one had ever surfed before in this area and he has cultivated a peaceful tranquil surf culture here. The dude is living my dream but at least he invited me to join the dream. It was a great day of decompression and recharge. Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
