My biggest dream is knowing that i was able to motivate people to pursue their dreams!
What are your goals for this season?
My goals for this year are very basic: i want to enjoy the moments on the water, whether it’s free surfing or competition! Sometimes, with so much pressure on competition, we forget to seize the moment and only think about the future!
And what dreams do you have for your sports career?
My biggest dream is to look back and know that I’ve made a difference in the lives of many kids, inspired them and motivated many people to pursue their dreams and fight for them! Because if later in life i know I did it, i will feel like an accomplished Man! And of course, i won’t’t lie: i would like to reach a good financial level that would allow me to help and repay the help of all those who gave me a hand!
