Chick traveling and surfing alone
I just bought my flight to Ecuador. How safe is it for a chick to be traveling and surfing alone? I already do Costa, Panama, and Mexico alone. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Just want to say THANK YOU for recomened me going on a surf trip with www.sweetsurfecuador.com! We surfed great waves when everyone else was complaining that there where no waves. David, the guide, was GREAT and knows everything about the tides and when the waves are working. THE BEST!
