Alison's Adventures's video: Maldives girls surf adventure with Alison Teal

“Surfing frees me!” Shaha blurted out as we emerged from a thick jungle of swaying palms on a tiny mysterious island. She is just one of brave and talented young girls leading “boarding meetings” to inspire more girls to surf in the Maldives. Who knew that surfing could change the world? This is my latest adventure back to the Maldives where I’ve been working with the US State Department and @sonevanamoona to make waves of change! I believe you protect what you love, and the more people that can fall in love with the ocean, the more they can naturally want to protect it. Thank you @maiz.i.am and @surfsquare.mv @shuhaa.dh @naseem2332 for having on your magical island and to the wonderful surfer girls @scha_haa @jau_chan and those not on Instagram…you changed my life! Mahalo to Troy Bogert for editing this! And of course to @lostsurfboards for my iconic pink surfboard made from recycled trash - I think every single person on the island asked me for a picture with it:) 🤙🏄‍♀️ 📷 @kellen___it
