Once I had my own freedom, my own sort of ability to transport myself, I grew up surfing. I surfed a lot in the south coast of New South Wales, and you put yourself into some really special locations there. One place comes to mind, Wreck Bay, which is an indigenous settlement that we have there. Looking at the way that Indigenous communities live so sustainably, they maintain their natural beauty. I fell in love with the ocean at a really early age.
I remember telling a story where I finished my university degree when I was 24. At the time I was doing a lot of climbing, and I went to the US, and I wanted to climb full-time for a year, which I did. I'd probably been six months without seeing the ocean and I didn't realise just how that affected me. And so I remember driving nearly a thousand miles right across Texas to the Gulf of Mexico, just to touch the ocean, put my feet in there. I spent a day there, and I turned around and drove a thousand miles back, to my friends, to continue my climbing trip.
I think I'll always have that deep connection with the ocean, but having said that, I think so many people in Australia have that deep deep love and connection, whether they realise it or not.
