Quotes:
“We have a planet that is very likely going to be unlivable in future generations. We have huge discrepancies in wealth and land ownership, especially when it comes to race. We have an abundance of food, but we waste a ton of food. But people are not being nourished by the food that they're getting, It's a very broken system but that implies that it worked in the beginning.”
“I really wanted to keep doing art. I kept getting pulled that direction. I want to go through life with a lens of seeing lines and shapes and colors in a beautiful way. Honestly, I think everyone should study studio art.”
“I always felt like I was doing things that might be dangerous to other surfers in the water. I also didn't want to look stupid. So I've been going to like a beginner break, where I feel like more comfortable my level. But it's more dangerous because there's so many people there that don't know what they're doing. And people are always telling me that I should go to some of the less crowded breaks. But I just felt nervous because the surfers are much better. It’s a moment to learn some things to build my confidence, really invest in something that brings me a lot of joy, which I feel more and more recently.”
