BEHIND WIND

A little about
the book’s beginnings.

01 / THE REASON

How WIND began

WIND has its roots in a kitesurfing journey that began in 2016 and became more serious over the last two years. Stretches of coastline that had barely registered before became places to explore. That curiosity grew into the idea for this book.

Wind and water are the starting point. The landscapes, food, culture and everyday life around them are just as much part of the story. WIND brings those things together in a book to spend time with, and return to when you’re thinking about where to go next.

02 / THE PROGRESS
