Is it too soon to talk about our winter/spring 2010 retreat? No! It will certainly get me through the upcoming winter just thinking about it and planning more around it. We’re heading to Matapalo in the Osa Peninsula, southern Costa Rica for 7 days/7 nights. It’s Lauren’s annual retreat, I’ve actually been there once, in the rainy season but we had surf every single day. There’s a variety of breaks to suit every level of surfer. And of course, yoga twice-daily, led by Lauren and her friend Tracy Mohr. This jungle beach prides itself as not being developed.
