Mozambique<br />
MOZAMB<br />
The first time I heard about Mozambique<br />
was in 2010. I was in Namibia<br />
for the record attempt and a South<br />
African rider was telling me about<br />
this amazing beach paradise with<br />
white sandbanks, perfect for freestyle.<br />
It had been at the back of my<br />
mind ever since. Although the civil<br />
war had been over for more than ten<br />
years (1992), Mozambique still had<br />
the reputation of being unstable,<br />
and there’s another thing that can<br />
be unnerving whenever anyone talks<br />
about Mozambique - the sharks! Nonetheless<br />
I took my courage in both<br />
hands and I decided to put aside any<br />
preconceived ideas about the place<br />
and go there. The images that I saw<br />
on the internet of this paradise with<br />
its magnificent beaches were what<br />
finally won me over.
