When I travel I like to stay off the beaten path so this site, Airbnd.com,  really fits my travel rhythm. It’s kind of an Ebay or Craigslist for people to open up their vacation homes, tree houses, Paris apartments, airstream trailers or whatever to travelers. The site has user feedback so you have an idea of what you’re getting into. Most of the accommodations are affordable, especially if you’re with a friend. Very cool.

Chelsea Tuach on YouTube

I just saw this of our little surfer girl from Barbados and had to share with you all!  This is 14 year old Chelsea Tuach.  Already she has prestigious WINS such as being the Barbados National Under 18 Girls Surfing Champion. Chelsea is also just back from Trinidad where she just won the Open Women’s Division and also competed in the Junior Under 21 Division – with 12 of the Caribbeans’ most talented Junior BOYS and made it to the FINAL!! NOt only was she the youngest competitor in this but she was a challenge to the boys, I love it!!

Chelsea will be traveling to California next month for the Rip Curl Grom Search,  you can believe I am looking forward to spending some time with her in and out of the water..and that I will share  with you.

Sally WINS BIG in Portugal at the 6 star WQS. CONGRATS SALLY!!! See Press release below
 
ASP EUROPE News
ESTORIL, Bafuriera Beach, Portugal (Sunday, May 3, 2009) - The day belonged to Sally Fitzgibbons (AUS), 18, and the new generation of women’s professional surfing. Fitzgibbons, current ASP Women’s World Tour member, surfed every heat of her final assault flawless, methodical and mechanical as she swept the field to win the ASP World Qualifying Series (WQS) 6-Star Estoril Billabong Girls Pro taking the valuable 3000 ratings’ points up for grabs. 
Fitzgibbons defeated fellow finalist and other rising wunderkid and ASP Top 17 surfer Coco Ho (Oahu, HAW), 17, with both surfers scoring near perfect rides as Bufuriera’s beachbreak was delivering clean three to four foot (1 to 1.2 meter) waves. Fitzgibbons came out blazing in the final locking-in four excellent scores before Ho managed to answer back with a near perfect 9.80 point wave. Meanwhile, Fitzgibbons was quick to respond and net a 9.85 pointer and take the win.

“It’s great to be back on the podium and definitely it has been some time between drinks," Fitzgibbons said. "I surfed a lot of heats before the final and paddled out quite relaxed and sat wide. I saw the tide starting to drain out and thought there were two peaks. I was lucky when the first one came wide and I got it.”

Fitzgibbons, who is a rookie on this year’s ASP Women’s World Tour, leaves Portugal with a solid back-up result in case she ends up needing to requalify through the ASP World Qualifying Series (WQS) at the end of this year. So far, Fitzgibbons remains well in position to fullfil expectations from the international surfing scene which considers the young woman a future ASP World title contender.

“It was great to surf with my friend Sally (Fitzgibbons) in the final," Ho said. "We had really fun waves, we were talking and having a good time. Sally started with three great waves and it took me a while to get a good one. Then I got my 9.80 pointer but Sally came straight back and bettered it with a 9.85 wave.”

Final
Heat 1: Sally Fitzgibbons (AUS) 18.60 pts Def. Coco Ho (HAW) 16.90 pts

Semifinals
Heat 1: Coco Ho (HAW) 18.0 pts Def. Carissa Moore (HAW) 11.00 pts 
Heat 2: Sally Fitzgibbons 16.50 pts (AUS) Def. Jessi Miley-Dyer (AUS) 10.20 pts
