Tuesday, July 14, 2020

Sam, Easkey, and Adrien catch up with West African surf legend Oumar Seye, the first West African sponsored surfer. Seye has impacted the surf culture in Senegal in more ways than one, both proving the sport can be more than a hobby and supporting sustainability by banning plastic bags at his surf events. They end their trip in Popenguine, a bohemian beach town where an incredible women-led initiative to plant thousands of trees has made the area one of the greenest parts of the country.
