There are a ton of reasons why one may start skateboarding.
It’s fun, it’s cool, it’s a nice way of transportation. It’s a whole lot of fun. But there is this one thing that isn’t really a common reason to start skateboarding. It’s definitely not something you’d think about when you decided to spend time skating. I really only noticed this after years of skateboarding. It’s something that makes skateboarding even more awesome than it already is, because I think the most underrated reason to start skateboarding is traveling. I went to South Africa to visit a Skateboarding project in a Rural village called the Valley of a Thousand Hills. In the Valley of a Thousand Hills, Indigo Skate Camp is a place where the first generation of skaters of the village are growing up, they are growing up with a different outlook on life than their elders. I came here because of skateboarding. Traveling and skateboarding are a wonderful combination and that’s why I think traveling is the most underrated reason to be skateboarding.
According to National Geographic:
"Within the Valley of a Thousand Hills in rural Durban, South Africa, there's a group of young skateboarders practicing on a half-pipe and a bowl. They're all part of the Indigo Skate Camp, a movement that looks to nurture sustainable skateboarding environments for rural and vulnerable youths, and Andile Msomi is one of them. The camp looks to empower local Zulu villagers to learn and grow through the language of skateboarding-and that they do."
