As you know, today is #givingtuesday, which was created in 2012 in response to commercialization and consumerism in the post-thanksgiving season. Its intention is to remind us that the holiday season - and life! - is about gratitude and giving, not "getting." ⠀ ⠀ We all know that consumerism is bad for the planet. Ask any environmentalist what you can do to decrease your footprint, and one of the answers you'll always get is "buy less stuff." Especially cheap stuff that doesn't last! ⠀ ⠀ Meanwhile, our beaches are FREE. They're accessible to all. At the beach, I don't have to "buy" anything or wait for a #blackfriday discount. At the beach, I #buynothing... but I receive everything! ⠀ ⠀ Here at #surfrider, our job is to keep our beaches free. Free for all people. Free from plastic and ocean pollution. Free from offshore oil drilling, rollbacks to federal protections, nuclear waste, bad development and from the disastrous effects of sea level rise. ⠀ ⠀ If you value this country's beaches as much as we do, please consider making a donation to our chapter this holiday season. Call me biased, but supporting Surfrider's efforts to protect our ocean, waves and beaches is a better deal than any #blackfriday or #cybermonday special! ⠀ ⠀ Don't wait - donate today and together, we will keep our beaches free! 📷: @thegiller #KristenGillMedia is proud to partner with those who are trying to make our world a better place. #conservation #oceanlover #cleanourbeaches #travelwithpurpose #hiltonnewsroom #thisisadventure #surfsup🏄

“I’m pretty sure I’m dreaming...don’t wake me!” The funny thing about this picture is that it almost didn’t happen. As I was leaving the house to go for an evening run, I was debating whether or not to bring my phone. I originally thought, it might be a nice sunset and it would be good to have my phone...but then again, I thought, just leave it...I can’t take sunset photos every night! ...Or, can I? #GoLaPazBCS #TheBajaDiaries #BajaCaliforniaSur #Sunset #lapazbcsmexico #ecofriendlyliving #lapazbcs #simplelifehappylife #oceanlover #dramaticseascapes #seasky #traveljournalist #travelwithyourphone #sunsetdreams #mywakingworld Photography by Kristen Gill / Kristen Gill Media.
