It’s a rite of passage and chances are you ate tins of beans and lived off noodles while experiencing your first J1.
You probably also worked enough shifts at a job to just about pay for your Thursday, Friday and Saturday night outs.
Unless you’re Paul Deering. Then you just happen to work solid for one month before taking on the adventure of a lifetime.
Paul took the J1 experience to a whole new level when he and his friends worked their way down the west coast of America, into Mexico and then switched things over by travelling back up the east coast.
Along the way he just so happened to capture all the swimming, driving, jumping and back flipping on a Go-Pro.
This is all kinds of epic. And we may have a touch of the green-eyed monster.
Hat tip to Paul Deering for sending this our way.
