Hola a todos!

My name is Barbara Garcia, and I am a para-athlete competing for Mexico

My parents say I've always been a warrior all my life and now I like to think this way of surfing was meant to be.

I suffer an accident 4 years ago causing my amputation and damage to my left leg. that didn't stop me from surfing and dreaming about a happy life.

Thanks to my family and friends I'm still working on my dreams and achieving step by step what makes me feel stronger.

P.S

KEEP PUSHING, end your fears and life will give you magical gifts.
