Love how you described surfing, haha it DOES make you seem cooler and I love that you own it.
Your dad randomly suggesting Mangalore for a roadtrip right after covid is such a cool dad thing to do. And those surf schools where you get housing and food and a whole community, that sounds like such a beautiful experience. So glad you met wonderful people there.
Also waiting to hear what happened in Chennai, you left me on a cliffhanger with the bigger and harsher waves! Hope you are okay.

I'm glad you like it! Chennai was something else, a bit scary actually which is why i didn't want to elaborate much 😅 the leash on my board (it ties you to the surfboard, it's wrapped around your ankle) snapped because of how harsh the waves were. usually the leash helps us grab the board and get back up, but i was thrown so far and couldnt find my board. I was able to stay floating, but I don't know how to swim properly and I was already tired. Thank god the Instructor was nearby, and he came to me and took me to the shore. I was fine, at that moment it was just adrenaline and i knew i wouldnt actually drown since i could float. After I caught my breath I wanted to get right back in the water 😅

Wow. I have no idea we could surf in India. Thanks for informing. Surfing feels like a great adventure sport. I feel it would make us fearless. Inspired from you, I think I might try it out
