go alone!

Best travel memory you want to share?

Spent 3 month in NZ alone, didn’t know anyone. Met heaps of cool guys, which are still my friends, been on my own for the first time and found out what I really wanted. Found out that skateboarding is a big family all over the world!

skating

When I get old I want to,

Still listen to Decendents:

What Will It Be Like When I Get Old
Will I Still Hop On My Bike, And Ride Around Town
Will I Still Want To Be Someone, And Not Just Sit Around
I Don’T Want To Be Like Other Adults
Cause They’Ve Already Died
Cool And Condescending, Fossilized
Will I Be Rich Will I Be Poor, Will I Still Sleep On The Floor
What Will It Be Like When I Get
