"I'm the happiest I've ever been!" The Don says to me as we exit the water one afternoon. Once dry and walking to order our favourite Little Mali treat I turn and invite him back on the show to tell the world how he's progressing in his surf photography journey. In this episode I'm stoked to bring you a conversation with an artist that has progressed leaps and bounds since our last conversation nearly a year ago. It brings me joy to see the hard work and sacrifice we all go through as creatives be rewarded. Trav tells me about some of his gaols he's ticked off and some more that are on his hit list. He talks about some of the things he wishes he had of done differently and what he would advise to someone in his previous position.

We don't get too technical in this one, but what we do discuss should provide you the stoke to grab your gear, get out there and get some water on ya!
