My sailing addiction started right here, on this boat. I named her Queequeg and sailed her to and from work. At that time, work was at a bar on Jamaica Bay. I didn’t grow up near the ocean. I didn’t grow up sailing. And I didn’t grow up rich. It doesn’t matter where you come from or where your starting from. Do you love it? Keep your eyes focused on it and pursue it with a purity of heart. You never know, one day it might lead you across an ocean.
Except from a video that I wrote, directed, & edited in collaboration with National Geographic about the importance of coral reefs and the tools being created by the Allen Coral Atlas to map & monitor the health of reefs around the world. 🌎 Check out the full video on IGTV via @allencoralatlas to learn how vital coral is to our existence! 🎶 by @iv_act
Triggerfish treasure- found on a beach where the desert meets the sea. In some places on earth, 85% of the white sand beaches are made from parrotfish poop. The fish eat coral and out comes sand. How many times have you rolled around half-naked in fish poop?
Where the desert falls into the sea
Soaking up the last rays of sun in my @raniflybikini on the bow of a boat that feels like a spaceship. ☀️ Someone came to me today and said they are upset with the way life is flowing. I said, “Shake things up then! You gotta always seek the joy in life and life will bring you more things to be joyful about.“ I’ll be the first to tell you to quit anything that makes you miserable and if you can’t quit it then look for at least one thing about it that you can be grateful for and funnel all your energy that direction. My main bread & butter has always come from filmmaking. My first job was making short films for a company, but it was a desk job, and I grew to hate the constraints and monotony of it, so I quit it. I started to do the same type of work as a freelancer, but found myself frightened over the financial instability of it, so I got my captain’s license to fill the gaps between with sailing gigs. I love sailing. I love filmmaking. I love my life. 💗I love this swimsuit too! It’s made out of recycle ocean plastics and designed by @raniflybikini 🌊 This suit is called “The Olivia” Get 15% off Ranifly swimsuits with the code: OLIVIA
