Is one of my favorite surf films of all time.
This is a quote from the film and is one of the most spot-on things I've read in a long time.
Just reinforces what travel is really all about as far as I'm concerned and is why being stuck here in San Diego for extended periods of time is such a mental downfall.
"Travel keeps you young. It does this by simply putting you in situations that make you feel like a child again. Magically lost in a moment of discovery. Beautifully confused. It could be the first time you awaken to the 5:00 a.m. call to prayer from the local mosque on Morocco's far Atlantic shore, the first time you feel the weight of the Egyptian sun on your shoulders, the first time you paddle out over the shallow reefs of the Caribbean, or the first time you realize that people living in squalor can achieve happiness as easily as those living in mansions. These are life's opportunities to shed the hustle of modernity, to join the moment, and stop sprinting toward some prefabricated goal. Your heart races. Your metabolism shifts into a lower gear. Everything is new again.
You're Sipping Jetstreams."
