Chicks Surf!












Coming from Australia surfing is an ingrained part of our culture; it makes sense, we are surrounded by ocean. Whilst Kristin who is the other half of this blog grew up in the Swedish countryside, I grew up on the beach. I am not a very good surfer, but I married one!! I found these images on weheartit and it makes me miss summer! Well I survived winter solstice so Summer is that bit closer!!

The last image is from google. Puberty Blues is a classic Aussie surf flick from 1981 directed by Bruce Beresford who is better known for the iconic flick Mao's Last Dancer. There is a famous line in the movie "Chicks don't surf"....hence my contradictory title! If you get the opportunity watch this flick!
Have a great weekend!! x
