Her Essence

“Her.

To be flowing with the wind, coming and going. Teaching you about life, while listening to what you offer to the world around you.

Vibrant, almost ecstatic, she can never be still. Always moving, always searching. Better waves, better snow. She’s done so much, yet her days are yet to come. Aspiring to the younger generations, she prides herself to be whole. A fresh breath in the crowds of followers, she’s not afraid to take the lead and cultivate change.

She knows what she wants, but not quite how to get there. But trying gets her to where she needs to be in the moment. Still, but always moving. Grounded, yet always free. She finds peace in little moments by the river, or as the sun goes down and she’s gliding over the last wave of the session. Or by the bonfire, wrapped in the laughter of her friends and soft strings of the guitar…

Her essence is different. You can’t seem to get it out of your head, she’s in your mind at all times. She strives to create a better world, leaving each place better than found. Leaving each person feeling inspired, led, and loved in a sense like a friend offers you a hand, when in need. She’s there for you, even when not around.

She flows. But not like the river, rather as the wind. Never still, yet grounded. She’s home.”——Alenka Mali

Very simply put, I’m one stoked girl, ready to get up at 2 in the morning and hike for sunrise, go to the airport and take a random flight…you name it!
