Sunsets in Lanzarote

Lanzarote Island literally rose from the sea millions of years ago. Although, the volcanoes are no longer active today, they continue to look over the pueblos that are scattered around their feet.

Surf, Sun and Volcanoes


The silent ancient volcanoes look on, as the waves roll in from the ocean.
It's hard to believe that there could be anywhere more beautiful to learn how to surf.

It's also hard to imagine that there could be anyone more fun to learn to surf with than with Aldo. Aldo, our surfing instructing runs his school, Epic Lanzarote Surf, Kite and SUP (stand up paddle) School from the beautiful outstretched beach of Famara on Lanzarote Island.

Island Transformations



As I discovered on the island of Lanzarote, it's not all about the surf and sun. In a studio tucked away on the streets of Arrecife, the capital of the island, stands a studio filled with flair, creativity and a lot of paint!

My incredibly talented friend, Naomi (I'm being modest because I know that I'll embarrass her otherwise) finally began the journey of opening her own studio of decorative painting.  Named Nyamuk, she specialises in giving your treasured pieces of furniture a new and revitalised lease on life by transforming them in a way a caterpillar morphs into a beautiful butterfly.
