ABOUT ME

I'm in Chile currently moving north, looking to learn how to speak spanish fluently enjoy whatever Chile has to offer, then I plan continue my Trans-American Journey. I love to surf, chill, eat and I have been known to party. Send me a message. A little about me: I love interacting with people, learning about them, their cultures, beliefs, what makes them tick. I love the ocean, surfing, swimming, fishing, sailing. I'm looking to travel as far as I can, surfing, playing music, taking photos, eating different foods and meeting people as I go. Check out my website for an insight on me www.thoughtsofdesire.tumblr.com or my travel blog for my current excursions. www.vidalamar.tumblr.com

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swam and surfed with Dolphins and Seals, probably sharks too, driven a very large John Deer 77 Cotton Picker in the Outback of Australia, been invited into a remote village on Lombok Island, climbed a coconut tree with the local people and ate in the house of a lovely family who had little to offer but gave what they had happily. Helped raise over $250,000 for UNICEF. Shaped my own surfboard. Drove from Los Angeles, California to San Jose, Costa Rica living out of my truck and surfing the Pacific Coast of Central America.
