The first time I went surfing was at summer camp when I was probably in middle school. I don’t remember what beach we went to, but we had an instructor that taught us some basics. I remember wiping out a lot but I also remember how much fun it was when I could actually keep my balance and ride waves. I enjoyed it so much that I wrote my high school application essays on the experience. I’ve been out of practice for a very long time. This sport is definitely the one I have the least amount of experience with, but at some point in my life I definitely want to get back into it and spend more time in the ocean. I would also love to travel to beaches and parts of the world that are known for being good places to surf. Especially with my father’s family in Indonesia, I’d love to be able to hit the beaches the next time I visit. If I could one day learn to do actual tricks, that would be fun too.
