#1
Ever wonder what it is like to be a up and coming pro surfer? Check out a day in the life of Leila and see how she manages surfing around the world competing and drivers Ed!

I recently travels to Ecuador. This was a team event with about 25 other countries. Hawaii had a team of 12 kids, 4 boys 16 and under, 4 older boys 18 and under and 4 girls 18 and under. I went in May to Ecuador and it was a great experience.We ended up placing 2nd over all and Australia won!It was blazing hot but I had a blast meeting all the other people from different countries.

The first picture is of my friends Kyle and Keanu on our way to Ecuador on the plain. It was a such a mission to get there!!!

The second picture is of the Hawaii team at the parade. All the teams get dressed up and they put on a huge parade for us. Our dresses were supper cute :)

The third picture is of me surfing on the final day of the competition. The waves were perfect lefts on a point break. I made it to the semis this day but unfortunately went down in the Semi Final round.

Don't wait for the adventure to find you... it's there you just have to take it....
