Dominican Republic

1. Jalou, How is it over there?

“I love the Dominican Republic. It is a great place to stay, the people are kind and there is plenty of sun and a great wind.”

2. What about the wind?

Most of the days I have been here the wind is just amazing. Today it isn’t that good. But all days I was able to take my 8meter kite to the beach. And you know what I love to, you don’t have to kite with a wetsuit on, because the water is nice and warm. You can move more flexible and that helps me a lot with my tricks.

3. Is this your first time in the Dominican Republic?
Actually it is my second time. Two years ago I also competied during the PKRA event in the Dominican Republic.

4. Do you feel like a full time kiter now?

Yes! This is the first time that I am on the road without any homework in my backpack. Since I finished high school last week. I feel so relaxed about that! The only thing I do right now is kiting and that’s the most important thing for me.
