From France with love<\/h1>\n

I was born to be a traveler and I was never quite comfortable being at the same place. I traveled to many places around the globe, always looking for new landscapes and experiences. But something happened the day I set a foot on Santa Teresa, suddenly I just felt at home.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here I never expected to see too many people from my country, my beloved France, but gladly and to my surprise, I was wrong.
\nIt is funny when you think that maybe I would have never met these fellow countrymen if I would stay in France, but here they are in Costa Rica and I am really happy when I receive visits.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One special case is the visits I received a month ago, the lovely Leroux Lefranc family, they came all the way from the Nouvelle-Aquitaine, looking for surf lessons here in Santa Teresa. They instantly booked lessons for all the family members.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As a lonely soul, I really appreciate what they make me feel that day, being part of a big family. All that love flowing between the family was really warming my heart. As a surf instructor, I always try to connect with my pupils, but this time It was different, the experience of teaching a whole family was something wonderful for me.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Thanks to Francois, Catherine, Louise, Alexandre, and Adelle, I’ll see you next year, can not wait!!
