The Chosen One: Stoke’s San Vino
Editor’s note: over the winter we ran a competition to find the “Chosen One”, a one-of-a-kind, absolutely average, everyday hero who would win our Most Ordinary Extraordinary Job In The World — a summer of back-to-back Stoke Travel trips, where not only would they be expected to have the time of their life, but to also much in and set up tents/serve you heathens your beer. Well, our old mate Ryan is the winner, the Chosen One, and this is his blog about his time with Stoke Travel. One trip down, who knows how many to go, get ready for the most fun of your life, Ryno.
RYAN WHITAKER
Five hours on a bus with the Stoke Travel Co., and I already knew that the competition I won would provide me the experience of a lifetime. The general mood of the crowd started off with intimate groups of people; some friends, some strangers; talking amongst themselves until Seija, the event manager, came up with a game for us all to play. The three people who had had sex in the most obscure places, would receive free bottles of wine. Mind you, this was immediately after a rest stop to which the majority of the persons on the trip procured alcohol; therefore, the group started to lighten up to each other. With the combination of putting all our dirty laundry on the table and the alcohol, we were well adjusted to each other once we arrived on camp.
I soon met various members of the team, some of whom I would party with the rest of the summer, as well as the upwards to two-hundred guests, open-minded festival-goers ready to experience some of what Stoke’s culture is all about. The first night of unlimited beer and sangria was not interrupted by the rain, as we crowded under the awning, dancing until the early hours of the morning. The next day was spent lounging, enjoying each other’s company, the wheel of misfortune, the unlimited beer and sangria, and, emblematic of a festival about wine happening in Spain’s wine country, a wine and cheese pairing. At night we navigated the streets of Haro until we found ourselves in front of a giant DJ set up in the town’s square. We danced with the locals, watched the fireworks, and, of course, drank the vino.
We woke up early and dressed in our freshest whites before our ascent to the top of the Riscos de Bilibio, armed with water guns filled with wine from a carton and transported by buses with seats draped over with plastic. The only word I can think to describe the following event is: carnage. We feebly returned fire with our water guns as we were drenched in wine thrown from buckets and hydroponic backpacks, pushing forward, out of the shade from trees and farther up the mountain. We basked in the sun once at the top, cheering over a view that overlooked the vineyards and the countryside. I simply remember thinking to myself that, “God is an artist,” as a smile formed at my face and I thought forward to the summer ahead.
Sound like your kind of fun? Damn straight it does. Whether it’s for next year’s San Vino, another type of food fight, or a chance to be the Chosen One, come and dance with Stoke Travel sooner rather than later.

The 60:40 Golden Ratio
Or how to perfectly pack any social gathering
It may flummox you to know this, but there is a scientifically proven way to ensure that all of your party guests derive the maximum pleasure from the gathering. Its taken years of hard work and observation, partying as much as we possibly can, in order to come to this realisation. What we are about to share with you, is our theory of The Golden Ratio, the perfect ratio of women to men at any alcohol fuelled event, that ensure the most fun and the least idiocy.*
We’re not saying that any of this is true in all cases. For the most part, people are pretty great. However, take a group of strangers on holidays, pump em full of alcohol and watch as they delipidate into lizard-brain horny morons. The personality traits that make them all different dissolve, leaving behind only their primal, animalistic instinct. And not only are they animals, they’re drunk ones so the whole thing gets pretty fucked if the ratio dosen’t work.
N.B. The following examples are as true of your house parties as they are of Stoke events. This is our gift to you, the fruits of many, many years observing and participating in social gatherings. We’re not saying that our findings are conclusive, but they’re pretty much spot on all the same.
100:0 girls:guys – Girls nights are pretty great, no one creeping on you or bugging you with their shit chat, just good fun gals talk and shit tonnes of dancing. The only problem is, all the built up stuff come out and it often turns into a night of just crying and telling eachother how much we actually love each other which is lovely but just, not every night you know.
90:10 girls:guys – In the mind of the girls, the guys may as well just not be there. They probably don’t give shit about the 10% who are sitting in a corner somewhere, confronted by what they thought would be a dream come true but is actually a little frightening. They’ll realise that they’ll either be ignored all night, feeling like they’re intruding on girls night, or they’ll just have to suck it up and be one of the girls for the night.
50:50 girls:guys – Pretty good ratio but you will still find that not everyone talks to the opposite sex purely because they want to fuck and statistically more guys are up for it than girls and so the ratio of is still a little heavy on the male side.
10:90 girls:guys –Take a group of drunk, steroid pumped bros and put them in the same room as far too few girls and you can smell the testosterone in the air and actually see the total panic in their eyes as they realise that their chances are not looking too good and their fragile ego may be about to fall apart. not only are their very few girls present but those that are there will be turned off by all this bizarre desperation and so will probably stick to themselves making it almost as bad as a 0:100 party. All this pent up sexual frustration then generally turns into anger resulting in drunk, messy and embarrassing fights. Real “gorillas in the mist” kind of shit, if the mist is a haze of wasted sangria at Stoke’s most recent Running of the Bulls sausage fest.
0:100 girls:guys – Absolute fucking carnage. Immediately aware that there is no hope, things get weird. The whole party escalates terrifyingly fast as beers are shot gunned and bonged. The whole thing results in shirtless, alcohol covered dudes banging their chests, starting fights and shitting and pissing everywhere. Also, y’ever wonder why the most macho guys in the outside world are so quick to jump the fence in jail? Throw a 0:100 party and find out for yourself.
60:40 girls:guys – perfecto, a little more girls than guys makes everyone chill out a bit. We can all just talk to each other and have fun without any underlying sexual frustration. All the ‘lads on tour’ can look at the crowd and feel like the got a good chance of getting laid and none of the girls get overwhelmed by a fuck load of sexpests.
We’ve always been great at getting the ratio right, but the opening weekend of our Running of the Bulls camp was a little skewiff. We’ll be working hard to make sure the ratio is returned to its golden 60:40 equilibrium asap. And this isn’t to say that without the ratio our gorgeous and treasured Stokie males will devolve into chest-tatt pounding muscle-bound troglodytes, but when the ratio is off, some of them will. It’s not personal, it’s evolution, baby.
*This is a very heteronormative concept, so we absolutely would like to hear from our LGBTQIA Stokies on how this concept plays out amongst other sexualities.

The Tattoos You’ll See In Every Hostel
Seven tattoos that you’ll find on at least one person at every hostel you stay, ever.
JOSEPHINE RYAN MURPHY
Mandalas, triangles, that bird and feather thing, they’re everywhere. It’s hard to come across a tattoo that hasn’t come straight from pinterest and the more you travel the more repetitive they become — and better than that is, they probably have no idea what the tattoo even means. Below is a list of some of the most common and most nonsensical that you’ll come across
The Unalome
The spiral thingy you keep seeing. Cultural appropriation is everywhere and almost unavoidable, in fact tattoos themselves were probably once culturally appropriating an ancient tribe somewhere. The actual meaning behind this tattoo comes from a Buddhist symbol which indicates that the person has reached enlightenment or nirvana. A pretty impressive thing to achieve and it’s hard to believe that the girl passed out in a hostel bed next to her own vomit has done it.
The Infinity Symbol
Infinity is an incredibly complex concept. An already formed… thing that, while being already formed, is also somehow endless but not actually going on and on as in getting bigger but going on and on and also somehow never actually changing in size. Mind fuck. People with PHDs in sciency things still discuss it and although the dude dancing in the corner and grinding his teeth to dust may actually be one of these people and have a fairly good grasp on the whole infinity thing, it’s just not that likely.
The Wave Line
There’s got to be another way to remind yourself how much the sea or some other sort of body of water means to you. Yeah it’s a pretty cool tattoo, it’s simple and it looks nice almost anywhere but use your imagination – and adding an EKG line doesn’t count. It’s almost as though there’s some unwritten rule where at some point, anyone with a few tattoos has to get this one in order to be allowed to get any more. Look at the roster in any tattoo parlour and you are guaranteed to see it scheduled multiple times each week. Gone are the days where tattoos made you a little different.
The Arrow
The symbol of an arrow originated from tribal hunter-gatherer communities, representing this tool that ensure their survival. These people literally used arrows to go out into the wild and hunt down food for their families. Walk into a starbucks now and you will more than likely come across quite a few.
The Tribal One
So ok, maybe you can justify things like mandalas, you may not be Buddhist or Hindu but you do really fucking love yoga and so you’ve experienced the spiritual meanings behind it. Tribal tattoos however, unless you are actually in a tribe or have some meaningful connection to one, makes no fucking sense. Why do people have them? Is it a weird masculine empowerment thing? I don’t get it. At all. Please someone explain it to me.
The Southern Cross
There’s a whole big thing about this, whether its nationalism or racism but either way, it really just isn’t that great a tattoo and besides if we all felt the need to tattoo ourselves with national symbols just to feel like we’re a part of something, I’d have a pot of gold tattooed on one arse cheek, a potato on the other and a rainbow connecting the two.
Wanderlust
We fucking get it ok, you’re a free spirit. So free that you need to tattoo it on your body somewhere you can see just to reaffirm it with yourself and everyone around you.
We recommend using this list as a way to make new friends in your hostels by turning it into a drinking game or something, just make sure you double check that they’re not actually on the list first. Or keep the bordem at bay on long bus journey by coming up with a some more to add to the list and them comment them here so we can do round two.

Todo lo que necesitas saber del Salinas Longboard Festival 2017
Surf, olas, música, competición, acampada, mercadillo y diversión. Los eventos de surf de verano están en pleno auge y este julio le toca el turno al Salinas Longboard festival, más concretamente del 27 al 30.
Este auténtico evento tiene lugar en la surfera ciudad de Salinas, localidad que sustenta varios festivales surferos y que tiene una gran tradición de surf. Por la calidad de sus olas (especialmente en verano), es un lugar ideal para celebrar un campeonato de Longboard.
La 16 edición de este festival pretende ser la mejor edición hasta el momento para ello cuenta con novedades en la organización como más espacios de conciertos, la recuperación del paseo marítimo para el festival, o la carpa para cubrir la zona de conciertos en caso de lluvia (como la que nos tocó el año pasado a aquellos que fuimos).
Qué esperar del Salinas Longboard Festival
Este festival se centra en una competición de longboard, donde participan importantes longboarders nacionales e internacionales. Como todos los años, este torneo es una buena excusa para hacer una fiesta del surf, y más específicamente de la especialidad del longboard (tanto en surf como en patinaje).
Junto con la competición habrá conciertos, exhibiciones de patinaje, un mercado surfero, y muchos stands, y furgos de comida y bebida para pasar unos días de fiesta, música y surf. Este año el festival cuenta con una oferta gastronómica de lo mas variada con mas de 30 “food-trucks” y un “market” cubierto con 120 puestos diferentes.
Lo mejor del campeonato de Salinas es que dispone de una zona de acampada habilitada justo enfrente de la playa desde donde podrás disfrutar del festival sin tener que moverte del sitio, eso sí, dada la cantidad de aficionados que se trasladan hasta aquí te recomiendo llegar con tiempo para poder encontrar un lugar para poner la tienda o aparcar la furgo.
Novedades del Salinas Longboard Festival 2017
Este año el festival crece significativamente, quizás porque cuenta con el galardón de Fiesta de Interés turístico en la región, pero esta claro que este torneo con más de 15 años a las espaldas piensa superar records de asistencia en esta ocasión.
Además de la zona de conciertos gratuita “MALIBÚ” se incluye otra zona de conciertos y acampada con capacidad para 10.000 personas esta zona se llamará #ZONATHUNDER situada detrás del cole (en su web está la ubicación exacta), al estar un poco más alejada de los vecinos esta zona permanecerá abierta hasta las 6am.
