AROUND VANCOUVER ISLAND ON MY KAYAK
IN MAY OF 2022 FELIPE BEHRENS SET OFF ON A CHALLENGE TO PADDLE HIS KAYAK AROUND VANCOUVER ISLAND. FOR AN AMERICAN FROM SOUTH FLORIDA USED TO SUNSHINE, WARM WATER AND PALM TREES, PADDLING IN THE FRIGID AND OFTENTIMES STORMY PACIFIC NORTHWEST, COULD HARDLY FEEL MORE DIFFERENT.
