Hey Rita! How’s it going? Congrats on 100k Instagram followers! Please give us some tips on building a following for those people starting out?!
Hey guys, thank you so much! Honestly what I have been doing is just following my passion and wanting to share every step of my kite adventures. I’m a passionate kiteboarder and I believe that everything you do with passion will result in success.
I never had a role model to follow on Instagram I just wanted to be myself and I think that it has helped me to grow as I’m always trying to show the real me behind the hard work on Instagram.

Have you been at home during lockdown and the summer months? Where is home and how is the kiting scene there? Are more people kiting now?
Yes, I was in Puerto Rico and flew back home when they started the lockdown. I grew up in Barcelona but now I’m based in my home town of Sant Pere Pescador which is 115km up north from the city, a town in the middle of Roses Bay.
The thermal winds are pretty good starting in May until September. Summer months are the best and we have a lot of tourists from Europe. The kite zone is packed that’s why in the busy days I usually take my hydrofoil to cruise around the bay.
