Burleigh Heads, this afternoon. Although we love to go south, the classic breaks up here are always an option, specially when you are one day away to go for a 15 day trip to Sydney. Daniela has already been bribing me for another photo shoot, hehe she is getting better than me with the camera!

Daniela checking it out in Hastings Point. The number of days we found ourselves with no one around at spots whose fame thankfully don't make justice to their quality is the proof that surfing and love can be close friends, contradicting my old beliefs.

It's flat, I know, but it's still a bloody Kirra Christmas tree! Merry xmas to all.

Those classes were starting to get way too boring after this chick took over, as u can see. We basicaly had a group of 7 Chinese dudes trying to break their first egg on one side and 5 of us Brazilians plus a couple of japs terrorizing the teacher and ourselves. It was fun for a while, but at the end of this semester this scenario was common: more snoring than boiling. I guess I had enough of al this crap, since Mark (ex-teacher) left I haven't learned shit. All in all it was enough to earn me a gig at Blu Grotto, where I really ended up aquiring the skills I wanted: making myself mad munchies!

It's like having your favourite dish.. this friday Anthony, Daniela and me drove all the way down to Ballina stopping in everysingle break and made the most of this south swell. A northeast spoiled the party at 10, so we ended up going out at the protected beaches like Tallows, South Ballina and North Fingal. My restaurant has been heaps quiet for the past couple of weeks, I just got am sms from the boss calling off tonight's shift for lack of customers. It's hard to believe that I've been a chef for nearly 2 months now and I still prefer Daniela's Italian cuisine, like this reef and beef on the photo that we just had for lunch.

Daniela and my camera are gettin on impressively well. South Ballina

Brunswick head
