The Drifter


In the beginning of the year there was a span of about two weeks where I had no cell phone and essentially no connection to those around me. It was at this point where I felt completely free even though I was still surrounded by the bustle of everyday life. Could you imagine this but with even less, well Rob Machado did exactly this. In the summer of 2008, iconic surfer and former Pipe Master Rob Machado flew to Indonesia to experience a different kind of surf trip. A journey that would take him way beyond his comfort zone, to the point where he could finally be alone with his thoughts, his desires and the empty perfection of an unnamed Indian Ocean reef. What did he discover? You never stop dreaming.
