Great breakfasts. Away from the hustle and bustle of town so nice and quiet. Very friendly staff. Comfortable bed. Cold beer and tasty burritos. Surf right out front and yoga on site. What more could you ask for?

We’re definitely feeling relaxed and in 'vacation mode’. It seems this …

There are few things in this world more humbling than the ocean and few sports more humbling than surfing. As the big waves rolled into Montańita during our final week, these two points became even more apparent.

I surfed just outside Casa de Sol, another hostel, before moving over to the point …
