When I think of a holiday, I imagine lounging by the pool and reading a book (preferably one by Dolly Alderton).
This was tested when I was invited to the GoPro Creator Summit in Fiji alongside 50 creators from over 21 countries. The guest list included pro surfers Anthony Walsh, Coco Ho, Pacha Light and Lakey Peterson, and activities included skydiving, parasailing, scuba-diving and more.
If there’s one thing that terrifies me, it’s people who are legitimately as “adventurous” as they claim to be in their Tinder bios. Why? Because I’m uncoordinated as all hell and, for me, holidays are synonymous with relaxing and not tempting pant-poopage by jumping out of a plane.
But I couldn’t not go — I’d never been to Fiji before and I’d also never used a GoPro, so given the Creator Summit also has classes on how to use the camera, I knew I’d walk away having learned about the tool and also a new culture, even if you couldn’t pay me to “catch a gnarly wave, bro”.
