Grilo's comment on Snowboarding and Travelling in general:

Once you do your first jump you get hooked and it is hard to get out. And I never even thought of getting rid of this addiction. A lifestyle that I have been doing for a long time now, and there has been so many things where snowboarding has given me an experience like no other sport. It is my life and the life I love. Traveling the globe with a board under my hands.
