New spots, friends, wife, ideas...

Has there been any situations, things or people that has changed your life significantly?
Yes, leaving home (Argentina). I had to start all over again with most things. Also the support of my wife, having her supporting me with my career.

What would your ideal day be like?
Wake up around 10 am, have a great breakfast (fruit smoothie & cereal). Organize my schedule for the day. Go to the beach with my wife and swim lots. Then talk with some friends to ride trails later. Have lunch with my wife that cooks delicious food for me, and eat together. Then meet up, ride trails, get wild. Barbecue at the trails, more people coming after riding (friends and people that don't ride). Have fun just hanging out. Get back home, shower, change clothes and all go out for some more good times.

Most important item to bring on trips?
Spare parts (so the session doesn't get interrupted), lots of socks & underwear, deodorant, all the electronics chargers, strong painkillers, earplugs & eye mask (good sleep always), sleeping pills (flights), ipod charged, PSP, laptop, tools.

What's the best thing about being home?
Rest, wife, relax.

Anything else?
Thanks to all the people that helped me. I can't mention everyone, there are too many.

Tak!! Skol!
