Private Surfista Tour: Graham Family from the Marshall Islands

Surfista Travels also provides private tours and packages that are currently handled by our Surfista Elaine Abonal. Last February 17 – 19, 2013, we were with the Graham family from the Marshall Islands and went to La Union. It was great to be with a surfing family who are also from a tropical country. We exchanged a lot of stories and Ronnie, who is 6 years old, had his first lessons in La Union, Philippines and did very well! The waves and weather were perfect for him. Check out the photo highlights to get a sneak peek of our time with the Grahams.

Travel is also about culture. The Grahams say that Halo-Halo is so good they had to name it twice!

We went to the RiverFarm Restaurant for fresh sea food and for Ronnie to check out the fish!

Ronnie got to feed the fish at the River Farm Restaurant.

We played mini-golf at Camp John Hay in Baguio before we went back to Manila

Elaine Abonal and Luke Landrigan guest on Magic 89.9’s Boys Night Out Radio Show!

Last February 13, 2013, Surfista Travels Philippines’ Elaine Abonal and Surfista friend and Billabong San Juan Surf School Head Coach Luke Landrigan were guests on one of Manila’s favorite DJ’s and radio shows: Boys Night Out with Tony Bueno, Eric Virata and Sam Gogna. They talked about surfing, the upcoming Billabong All Girls surf camp and predictions of LOVE LIVES & CAREERS! Haha! It was a lot of fun and we were very honored to have been able to be part of the show!

Listen and watch this YouTube video of their radio guesting – one of the funniest Surfista Travels has had yet!

Happy 1st Birthday, Surfista Travels Philippines!

We had a mini reunion and dinner with our fellow Surfistas last February 12, 2013 to celebrate ONE YEAR since we’ve had the first ever Surfista Travels Philippines trip!!! SO MANY people turned up to show their support and see their Surfista friends again. People took photos, talked about their first time surfing, talked about their Surfista trips, caught up, laughed, ate, and just enjoyed each others’ company. Thanks for coming, Surfista and we hope that this will be the 1st of many more years of Surfista birthdays and reunions!!!

Here are some photo highlights from our very 1st Birthday!
