Fuerteventura and surfing.
I went to fuerteventura two years ago in September.
Fuerteventura is a small island in the Canary Islands, you can travel from the top to the bottom in a day.
I think it has volcanic origines, because all the landscape is brown and desertic.
I was with three friends of mine. We went to learn surfing.
It was an exciting experience. I was really afraid of sharks but lot of people and internet as well said me that the ocean's water is too cold for them. Sharks are a danger for everyone and I am afraid of lots of things. So I got used to swimming where there were other surfers. Maybe it's strange to think about that, but it's a statistic.
I tried to stand up on the surf and I wasn't able to for a long time.
It was hard to swim to find the best wave, sometimes I took it in the wrong way and all my efforts were useless, but at the end of the week I made good progress.
