Guiones, at sunset
We just spent the week in Costa Rica. Maybe you missed me at Startup Week. We were catching waves in a small surf town called Nosara.
It's the type of town where you keep running into the same people. They surf, they care about their health, they say hi when they see you a second time. It reminded me of our San Diego tech community. A small “town” inside a bigger city.
Quick story. I rented a board from a local the first morning we got there. I found out later he had just started his surf and local tours business. Well done, Chico!!
He and his partner had a slower morning at the shop, and they ended up paddling out with me that morning. We surfed for three hours.
They showed me the waves they grew up surfing, and how they differ from what I'm used to in San Diego.
Two days later, I paddled out on my own. The conditions were bigger, a bit better, and I performed much worse.
It took me days, and many miles away from the ocean, to realize the true value of a local guide.
We were on a jungle hike, and our guide pointed out which specific trees sloths or toucans frequent for food. We would have just looked in every tree.
I can be the guide for the event scene or who to know in San Diego.
But we're all guides in our own way. Come share what you know.
