Fucking Place

300

want to thank Hayato for sending me these photos. from start to finish, Kimura-san was in my boot camp. in the water or out of the water, i was teaching him how to look forward. something i do all the time and that’s why i fell into the ditch late at night. haha. before boarding these local Chinese propellor airplanes, i think how lucky i am just in case it’s my last day.

eating street food is a must everywhere you go in the world. half of it you don’t know what it is, and half of it you can only use your imagination. and just hope you don’t get a sore stomach in the meantime.

walking down another night market to get some dinner.

we kind of stood out because this little town was super small. very local and very interesting.

after dinner in Taipei, we all wanted to go get a Jack/Coke at a nearby bar. so i searched one up and guess what popped up? “Fucking Place.” that’s my kind of bar!

so we go to Fucking Place and it was pretty Fucking Cool!

it cracks me up how people in other countries use English words in their businesses. Fucking Place would never ever work in America.

the best way to maintain a boat is to use the boat. so i jumped on Mayuki and ended up staying out for 5 hours. surfed my secret spot and it was incredible! nobody out and perfect waves. it felt like i was in heaven!

seen my little friend hunting for fish.

he came by to say hello.

he just didn’t want to leave. so cute!

then came back in and took care of my baby. washed and cleaned her up. now she’s ready for anything! can’t wait to ride her again tomorrow!
