It’s hard to express in words what I consider the best experience of my life, but I’ll give it a try!
If you’re heading to Panama, Bocas del Toro is most likely on your itinerary as a relaxing beach getaway.
Along with Give & Surf, we came up with Fuel the Future campaign that raises funds to keep these boats running, which costs $30/day.
Below is an interview originally posted on Photographers Without Borders, with their permission, we’re sharing Nicholas’ story in Bocas del Toro at Give and Surf, an organization we support and care immensely about. The interview was written by Mary Cranston.
“I knew almost nothing about what I was getting into on Bocas Del Toro.”
Everything is just a BIT more difficult here in Bocas del Toro, a blisteringly colorful archipelago of islands, cays and islets set in the northern edge of Panama’s Caribbean coast.

My contentment is so great that it makes it difficult for me to describe how much the work that I did with Give and Surf changed the way I see my life now.
Our “Fuel The Future” fundraiser aims to raise funds specifically for fueling the boat that takes the children and volunteers to school each day.
