Never too early to start planning your weekends for surf trips. Also, this list will come in handy to prepare for those “sunod-sunod” na Surf Competitions and Festivals. There’s about 18 holidays and 9 long weekends this 2012 (I think). But you know us here at LokalSoul, everyday is a holiday! (we wish). Happy New Year!
