Saltwater Buddha: A Surfer’s Quest to find Zen on the Sea

“The ocean is in constant flux, and when you spend

a lot of time in it you become like a floating bottle with a message inside” – Jaimal Yogis

An old roommate and now someone I consider a good friend gave me Saltwater Buddha by Jaimal Yogis. About a year ago I finally started reading it then a few weeks later put it down which lead me to last week when I picked it back up only to fly right through the remaining pages. (I should have finished it a year ago, but things happen.)

Saltwater Buddha, a memoir about a teen who escapes to Hawaii stepping away from reality (in Sacarmento, California) and the journey that follows will inspire all. Whether you are a surfer, skater, snowboarder, or just outdoor enthusiast you will relate to Jaimal’s coming-of-age journey through surfing and Buddhism. Be ready to feel inspired to chase what you are passionate about.

Chasing Harry Winston

With two months off every summer I typically go through my summer reads quickly. However, this summer I dragged my feet and it took up until a few nights ago to finish my second book. To feed my reading habit I decided to start posting my monthly reads. Be forewarned as my pallet of novels is wide.

I’ll start with Chasing Harry Winston a book I picked up to read summer of 2009, but read this summer, none the less.

Chasing Harry Winston, a novel written by Lauren Weisberger (the devil wears prada) which follows the relationships of three women on the verge of turning thirty over the course of one year; Emmy the habitual monogamist, Leigh the straight shooter, and Adriana the Brazilian sexpot.

It’s a fast read, relatable, and funny. Weiberger keeps you wanting to turn the page to see what the girls are up to next whether it’s the pack they set or finding out who they truly are. Chasing Harry Winston is perfect for any summer reading list.
