Mahalo nui loa! I had such a fantastic solo week in the surf studio, it was the perfect place for me. Marie and family were extremely welcoming, respectful and helpful and my space was private, comfortable, clean and well equipped. I felt really safe there. I had my own bike for the week and great advice about all sorts of things, like little nooks out of the wind for swimming! This is the second time I've enjoyed the very special surfing culture of this area and being hosted by this admirable surfing family was a wonderful way to do it. My hat goes off to all of you for charging the waves there - the uniquely awesome way the swell arrives on that coastline is not for the faint of heart: much respect! I look forward to staying again sometime and working my way further into the swell. Hope to see you all again. Aloha!
