Mentawai Islands

What happened

Stella and I spent 10 days at The Shadow Mentawai. Here we had our couple cabin with AC (yes, AC in a very remote place) in a tropical island. The schedule is every day breakfast at 7AM, boat departs for morning surf at 8AM, back for lunch at 12:30PM, boat departs for afternoon surf at 3PM, back for dinner at 7:30PM, repeat for 10 days. After the 6th day, you can feel the fatigue of surfing every day twice for hours. But as soon as the boat arrives to the break, you get so excited for what you see that you forget that you were tired. The only downside is that now I want to go back every year.
