Life with Pacha Light is a loosely connected series of social, environmental and cultural missions – some local, some global. This year has been no different. She started the year in Ecuador – where she was born – just as the country was plunged into civil unrest. In May she travelled to Fiji, delivering pre-loved surfboards to village kids. Then in July she was in Japan, joining “the caravan of hope” alongside old friends in the Japanese environmental movement. Back home in Australia over winter, Pacha took a moment, shared a cup of lemongrass tea shared with her mum and Oma, and then went surfing.
