** SURFING AND SAFARI IN MOZAMBIQUE WITH TICKET TO RIDE **

Ticket to Ride Worldwide Surfing Adventures is running its first TTRide Surf Adventure course up the coast of Mozambique during April 2009.

The three weeks of surfing and travelling along the coast of this relatively unexplored sub-tropical surfing paradise is the setting for Ticket to Ride’s most extreme surfing adventure to date.

“Being able to push the boundaries of surf travel and surf exploration is something that we are continually working on here at Ticket to Ride,” said Will Hayler, co-founder of Ticket to Ride.

Follow the journey on the TTRide blog, and be inspired to join one of the surfing adventures across the globe. For more info on courses and safaris, visit www.ttride.co.uk
