Tim Terry II It all started for Tim shorty after he got his license. His parents noticed his absence from home and became concerned. When they found out he was ditching school a boundary was hit. After sitting down with him they found out the reason for all of his hidden adventures. Surfing, camping, seeing how far he could can get away and make it back for class on Monday, was a regular routine. Rather than being angry his father dug out his old 35mm camera and asked Tim to start documenting his travels.
12 years later he is still at it. Working closely with local companies such as Culture Pop Films, Guayaki, and other people and organizations that share his interest. Today Tim is discovering what is most important to him in life by constantly seeking adventure on the road and in wild territories. Form Alaska to Mexico, he can often be found cruising in this truck; surfboards, climbing gear, and cameras at the ready.
