Mailen Roveda

Mailen Roveda, born and raised in Argentina, had always dreamed of a life closely connected to the ocean. Her childhood summers were spent on the beach with her two brothers and these memories fueled her desire to live by the sea.

After completing high school, she embarked on a journey into studying psychology, driven by a profound curiosity about people and the complexities of the human mind. However, life had more in store for her. During a solo adventure to South Africa, Mailen had her first encounter with the world of surfing. At that moment, she realized her destiny really was intertwined with the sea.

Following her passion, Mailen made her way to the tropical paradise of Costa Rica, initially planning for a short three-month surf trip. That trip evolved into a remarkable five-year journey. Her love for surfing also led her to explore other countries. At one point Mailen moved to Europe but ultimately returned to Costa Rica, missing the tropical weather and the allure of the waves she had grown to love. Surfing has transformed not only her lifestyle but also her perspective on the world and her emotional landscape, and she can’t wait to share her passion for the ocean with Amigas.
