Waxed and ready to go... First day on snow tomorrow with the SBINZ crew! 🤙🏼 Grateful to @jones_ausnz for the sweet gear 🙏🏼 Bring on the 2019 season!!! #jonessnowboards @jonessnowboards

1430km of Adventure with my Favorite.. We jet via Hong Kong tonight, looking forward to coming home 🙏🏼

Religion everywhere. Who’s on your team who’s on mine? It’s been interesting to hear the perspectives from some of the families we’ve been staying with. Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, Catholic, Muslim... We’re not super savvy with it all but we know one thing. The people we’ve met so far all smile and welcome us to their country the same. Even the army and police checkpoints (around 6 over 120km traveler this morning in our TukTuk) have been pretty easy to talk with, more curious than anything. I bought a memory card this morning from a small camera shop along our way... when he learned where I was from he teared up, he praised our government and wished one day that his government was more neutral like NZL. We’ve about a week left in this stunning country, surf looks good for tomorrow 🤙🏼

Hanging out of train doors, biking through tea plantations, hiking trails that were once super busy, eating the best curries ever... a few of the highlights after being in Sri Lanka. The locals, particularly in Ella and other touristy areas have had many cancellations due to the attacks a month or so ago. This time last year, a hostel in Ella had 25 guests. Tonight, they have zero... we paid the manager to have our laundry done to help spread the love. Ashley and I have been stoked with the friendly vibes, especially in the smaller towns 🙏🏼

The first few days in Sri Lanka are going great! Clocked 40km today through some amazing countryside biking, eating and exploring with the locals, so much on offer here! While the rain pours down outside, Ashley and I put together a little selection of the day on the iPhone. Off to Ella tomorrow...

Stunner 🙏🏼

Lake on island on lake on island.

Just finished up a week spending time with the Swiss Education professionals during a Level 3 preparation course. Great to see their training in action and learn more about their methodology! Thanks very much @snowboardinstructionnz @nzsiaski @swisssnowdemoteam for the opportunity to Exchange 🙌🏼 24 hours of travel ahead... any podcast recommendations!?

Wooden cabins are the best. Especially at lunch time.

21 Countries, 60 international representatives and about 20 locals. Great to meet up with passionate snowboard instructors and coaches from all over the world. Every 4 years NZL sends a team that represents our methodology on and off snow, gathers new information and promotes the future of snowsports. Thanks @interskipamporovo #interski2019 #snowboarding Congratulations to @levi.ski who will host the next congress in 2023 @snowboardinstructionnz will see you there 🤙🏼
