Tarifa

Tarifa. When  going there we only knew that it was located at the southernmost area of Europe and Africa would be within the reach of your eyes. We didn’t  know anything about the climate of Tarifa but we suspected that it would beboth  windy and hot. 



Tarifa might be call the land of thousands kites .The sky is filled with the whole palette of colours,  thanks to people practising  kitesurfing. Another amazing thing about this place is a strong influence of Moroccan culture which is particularly noticeable in the architecture, cuisine, handmade products and, above all, people wearing traditional outfits





We decided to stay here for the next three days. We found a camping, unwrapped our stuff and then we got ready for our typical dinner in the form of “Chinese” instant soups.  As usual, boys went to see Tarifa from the air. They flew at the sunset which caused a great interest among the local people. Next day we went to the beach to learn how to kitesurf. 



Bartek gave us some lessons. We were really impressed by his exploits on the azure water. Unfortunately, we had to resigned from further training because kitesurfing was not as simple as we initially thought. After a few hours of resting on the beach we returned to our camp. We fell asleep in hammocks, listening sound of guitar strings and Kasia’s songs. The last day we devoted to explore the town and looking for a seasoning called "cumin", which we had promised to provide for moms. 


 Three days weren’t enough for us … We wish we could stay there longer...
