The love of windsurfing is firmly ingrained in me. It has always been a source of excitement, adventure, freedom and new experiences. So much so that my working life has very much been built around windsurfing, favouring flexible work over income security. To this end I set up a website development business over 10 years ago and then started up the Bigsalty Weather service, something else very close to my heart. My wife, being an author, is similarly flexible with her work meaning that we try and spend as much time at the beach as possible. Now with a two year old in tow and another baby in the family, the challenge to windsurf freely has once again increased but with every challenge is a solution and so far I feel like barely any sacrifices have been made. I’m constantly learning, trying new moves and getting the buzz. Dreaming about a new location on the perfect day. Or the same location shared with friends. Long may this continue.
