This is episode eight, lead into travel.
Now that the winter's kind of coming to an end, the northern hemisphere of the world,
all of the swells pretty much slow down and become relatively non-existent and everything
shifts to the southern hemisphere.
I'm trying to chase swells all around the world and be at the key places on the right
day.
I think three of the best days I've had in the southern hemisphere have been in West
Africa.
One day where we you know we drive through the desert, pulled up to this phenomenal left
that like nothing I've ever seen before in my life, like so so long you can't even capture
the whole wave on video.
Then another day I had on a boat trip I was doing through the Mentawai Islands in Indonesia
where we scored right and surfed for about seven or eight hours straight cuz I couldn't
get out of the water it was some of the most beautiful waves I'd ever seen.
Then another swell I had was in Fiji that really sticks out in my head and for like
four or five days straight it was some of the most perfect lefts I had ever seen in
my life and the worst day I have travelling is still something that you know having fun
and looking forward to.
That's travelling advice I could give to someone that doesn't travel that much is just you
know take it as it comes don't like, expect everything.
As soon as you're like expecting so much you're let down.
Ohhh my.
