While there he began to feel tired and worn alienating himself from the industrial rhythms, until he has been introduced to surf world by his friend Dany.

The ocean has become his place of sanctuary; surfing a necessity. His new found love has gave him an appreciation for life that he wasn’t able to discover until now.
