Walk the Walk for Yots, Yotsie, Gordo

My beautiful friend Yotsie was tragically killed a short time ago.

A true gentleman, friend, living life to it's fullest and reminding others to do the same... "life is not a take 2, or dress rehearsal... we need to remind ourselves to live in the 'now'", he'd say.

We spent many years in the Cook Islands paddling together and always took supplies to kids and animals in need over there.

Whilst trying to find clarity about taking 4 days to attend his funeral up north, just days before I leave for Cooks again, I got the reminder and peace about what Yots would want me to do.

To honour him, I'm going to spend those 4 days, rallying to get as many supplies together that I can, to take over for kids in the Cook Islands.

These pics are of us taking supplies to a school on Aitutaki and beautiful post he made... so I'm going to 'walk the walk and talk the talk', one more time for Yotsie, Yots, Gordo ❤ (I can't get the post he made to appear here, it's on my FB page if you want to see it)

Yots loved helping everyone out, especially kids, so if you would like to walk the walk with me to honour our dear friend, feel free to donate.

I leave next week.

Thanks to all of you who knew & loved him.
