Personal memory by Ian Bertel
2016 • Malibu, CA, USA
I remember being in Malibu, California running up the cliffs that look over the ocean. I ran because I was so exited to see the extravagant view it beheld of the natural world. The cliff was tall and steep, you could look up and down the coast and only see the breath taking landscape of California. This is one of my favorite memories because I never felt so alive, and been so amazed with the world.
