Where is the Azores? I asked the same question when i saw this 6 star destination for the girls women’s tour.  The Azores is a little island off portugal, and its one of the most beautiful places iv ever been! With Amazing coast line that has natural pools in every cove, big green mountains and HOT SPRINGS!! its amazing! Me and bethany got to the Azores the day before the contest started and thankfully got our surfboards and suit case(half the girls did not get the stuff for 4 days after the comp started). But it wasn’t that big of deal for all the girls that didnt receive there boards because everyone just shared, i lent two of my boards out(: the surf was pretty much flat, it was probably one of the smallest contest iv ever surfed in. I lost in round of 24,  witch i was pretty bummed about, just because it sucks when you cant even catch a wave i your heat because its was almost flat. But its all good now, we have been having so much fun! We haven been going on hikes to waterfalls, biking around the coast line and jumping in natural pools that where created a long time ago. its been so cool and i dont think i want to leave): we still have 4 more days left so im excited to see what els this island with bring us.
