The Search

# The Search Queer surfers are out there. I’ve met some online, but I keep wondering what would happen if we found each other in the water. So I’m setting off across Europe to find out. I’ll follow introductions, messages and whatever leads I can find, including Instagram, Tinder and Grindr. Maybe I’ll meet people already part of the Surfer.Gay community. Maybe I’ll find someone who thought they were the only queer surfer at their break. I don’t know who I’ll meet or where this will lead. That’s the point of *The Search*: to show up, share a surf and see whether the connections we make online can become a community in real life.
