Surfing on the mind

It is so close to spring break for me.. just a tad over 24 hours and I am a free bird! So of course surfing is on my mind -- I can't help it! So this is what I stumbled through - - again on the brink of Patagonia.

DRIFT.

I have worked at a surf shop for over eight years and it's about time there is a refresh button in the mix. I know how things work, the politics and BS that happens -- it's about time a shop stands transparent in what they are doing and how great is it that they are doing some pretty epic things.
I'm not sure how I can get involved in this ... but this right here.. taking images and writing about those who care and are making a change in this world -- welp you got my job right there. The four years of college wrapped up in an image, a story, a mix between contrast and comfort. Drift, take me with you.

"We are sick when the ocean is sick" - check out the video at the bottom of this page.

Being a surf instructor for all of the eight years I have worked at the surf shop as made me an activist from just the love of the water and when the comment is made about the health of the ocean being the health of those who have an intimate relationship with it. That couldn't be more on point.  Count me in!
