I've always been interested in the sport of surfing. Although I have only surfed a few times in my life (i.e. surfing lessons) when on vacation, I always knew it was a passion of mine. I am from the midwest and have always lived here. I have a lot of heritage here, but I feel it is time for me to move on. I have always wanted to live on the west coast of the United States or in Hawaii. I am currently a undergraduate at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. I am a major in Conservation and I am minoring in Biology. I love the environment and what it has to offer! I guess what i want to say is that I am not a writer or a surfer. But I am enthusiastic about the sport and would love to learn more about it. Experience is the best learning tool one can acquire. I know I am not qualified or what you are looking for, but if you could please send me information via email more about this sport, I would fully appreciate it. Once I become more accustom and acknowledged about surfing I am determined to STUDY/LIVE i
