    I firmly believe that you don’t have to be resilient to be an open water swimmer or a cold water swimmer. I have learned that through swimming outdoors, I have become a much more resilient person.

  • The Swimming Dreams I A Short Film About Swimming in the North Sea

    I used to dream about flying like a bird, soaring in the sky. Now my dreams are of swimming in the North Sea.

    I just open the window and fly.

    For me, Swimming is a connection; with my body, with the elements. A natural return to the source of all life. I control my breath and let the water support me, holding me up, moving across my skin. Do I slide through it, or does it slip past me?

    There is no better feeling. I love this dream.
