Trash Surfing in Seminyak, Bali

Riley3 min read

What you need to know about Bali's trash season before your surfing vacation. Family hits the waves with Santai Surf School in Seminyak, Bali.

Travel makes the perfect gift! It always fits, never goes out of style, and the memories last forever. And THE PASSPORT PROJECT is the perfect gift for the adventurers in your life. A quick description: Would you trade middle school for the world? Literally. Most middle-schoolers just want to survive zits, cliques, and crushes. That’s nothing compared to public nudity, scam artists, and Bali belly. 🛩🌎 When 14- and 12-year-old sisters get trapped in their parents’ “global family field trip,” Delaney and Riley must navigate new countries, cultures, and religions while also navigating adolescence. But when a flight mistake puts the family’s freedom at risk, will they be able to find their way home? 😳 THE PASSPORT PROJECT is a “DORK DIARIES meets THE AMAZING RACE” MG/YA travel memoir for all ages.

Camino de Santiago 🥾: The Final Challenge 💪🏼 What better way to end the Camino adventure than with an Aussie 🇦🇺 vs. American 🇺🇸headstand competition. You know your feet are killing you when standing on your head in a piazza seems like a good idea. 🧘‍♀️ Notice our different techniques in the approach and pose. The competition was fierce, but the Aussie @matt_landy11 won when I toppled into him. 🇦🇺💪🏼 #caminodesantiago #headstand #headstandchallenge #stupidhumantricks #santiagodecompostela #buencamino #yoga #cathedraldesantiago
Camino de Santiago 🥾 Day 5: O Pedrouza ➡️ Santiago de Compostela ⛪️ 🥾 We made it! Our final day was rewarded with a magnificent sunrise. ⛪️ There are no words to describe the Camino experience. The people you meet along the way never seem random. From the 17-year-old Irish student to the 73-year-old Indian dentist, you are either giving or receiving wisdom with each encounter. Although not all who walk the Camino are Believers, there is no doubt that God is with each person along this journey. ⛪️ Our “Last Supper” consisted of Mary, Jesus, Peter, and Matt(hew). Not kidding! Buen Camino! 🥾 ⛪️ #caminodesantiago #caminofrances #satiagodecompostela #hikingadventures #faithjourney #spain #travel #4wornpassports #sunrise
Santiago de Compostela 🥾 Day 4: Arzua ➡️ O Pedrouza. 🥾 I remember when I thought 13 miles was a long hike. Oh right, that was just last week. After yesterday’s 20-mile walk, 13 miles feels like a stroll around the block. 🥾 We had a great night with our Camino friends in the fantastic Albergue Porta de Santiago, where we chose bunks next to our Aussie friends like the adult version of summer camp. 🥾 One more day to go!! 🥾 🥾 🥾 #caminodesantiago #caminofrances #hikingadventures #spain #galicia #opedrouzo #cow #pilgrimage #thepassportprojectbook #writingcommunity #travelmemoir @albergueportadesantiago
Camino de Santiago 🥾Day 3: Palas de Rei ➡️ Arzua. 🥾 The bad news…today was 20 miles and brutal! The good news…The Passport Project has become the reading choice of pilgrims along the Camino! 😉 . . . #caminodesantiago #caminofrances #hiking #pilgrimage #spain #thepassportprojectbook #hikingadventures
Camino de Santiago 🥾 Day 2: Portomarin ➡️ Palas de Rei. Today’s Camino bonus was meeting fellow memoir writer, Liza Grantham, who lives in Galicia, Spain. We met in a FB group a few months ago, and met in real life when she and her hubby joined us one evening for a few drinks and many laughs. 🥾 ⛪️ 🥾 #caminodesantiago #caminofrances #pilgrimage #spain #hiking #palasderei #labyrinth
So today the adventure really began. We started our pilgrimage walk from Sarria to Santiago de Compostela. If you aren’t familiar with the history or significance of this walk that has been around since the Middle Ages, watch the movie The Way or the documentary I’ll Push You. 🥾⛪️ Also known as The Way of St. James, thousand of pilgrims make this walk every year for religious or cultural reasons. We are doing the shortest section of the Camino that qualifies for the Compostela. We are walking the last 72 miles carrying everything we need on our backs. It is exhausting, painful, and exhilarating. We’ve only completed our first section, and I’m so humbled by the pilgrims who finish the entire Camino each year. Leigh Ann Fuller, I’m looking at you! Here are a few pics from day one. It looks like we started in the middle of the night, but it was 7:30 am and the moon was still high in the sky. 🥾 🥾 🥾 🥾 #santiagodecompostela #pilgrimage #thewayofsaintjames #spain
