BOARD #6, "THE LOVE FISH"

hey again!

this board should have gone to bordeaux with the others but i didnt manage to make it in time.

this one`s for my girl, anna.

she`s been so supportive and encouraging through all of this, its amazing.
there were times when i was almost ready to give up because it was a real hassle and i was frustrated and all, but she always was there for me and reminded me why i had even started this amazing journey. she kept me on the right track. and she wasnt too mad at me when i messed everything up with all the foam dust everywhere all the time either ;-)

thank you soo much, i love you !!!!!

this one is for you.

the boards are getting boxed right now and will then get on the road back to austria.

im pretty stoked as you can imagine and i cant wait till the box arrives. just in case i`m getting a heart attack when they arrive, it was / is a blast. it was not easy but it was a lotta fun.

thank you so much sebastien, alexandre, vasco, rui, and all you bloggers out there coming by.
