Exploring the Mentawais aboard the "Bintang", off the coast of Sumatra in Indonesia. An amazing time with my brother and a fantastic group of friends. Thanks to Greg Hunt for the last photo of mine, sometimes it feels good to be in front of the lens for a change!

One week of fun waves in an amazing place: Tamarindo, on the North Pacific coast of Costa Rica. Friendly people, fantastic views and incredible weather... A very welcomed time away from the rushed life in the studio, and certainly a destination to be visited again. Thanks to Jeanette from Matos Surf Shop, in Playa Grande, for the photos at the end of the post - sometimes it's good to be on the other side of the lens!

After my first visit to Tavarua last year, I just couldn't wait to be back to the most incredible island a surfer/photographer can wish for... The waves were simply perfect - and absolutely huge for a couple of days, something every single person from our Brazilian group was just anxious to witness. Here are a few samples of that wonderful week, I hope you will enjoy seeing them as much as I enjoyed making the images!

I'm still in Fiji, but a few hours away of boarding the plane to LA, and then home again by Monday. It was an unbelievable week of sun, fun, old and new friends - and lots and lots of waves in Tavarua. While I wait for my flight, I can't resist posting two images of the trip: an aerial view of the dream island that is Tavarua, as we were about to land; and a nice moment of my friend Rafael Mellin getting an unique view at Cloudbreak. More images to follow here on the blog, as soon as I get back to the studio!
