Sean Jansen Paddling With Porpoise A 1,000-Mile Stand-up Paddle Journey Down Baja

Sean Jansen spent the first 25 years of his life in Southern California. Growing up as a surfer, he endeavored to spend every waking minute in the ocean. By 26, he had travelled to 26 countries and lived internationally in both China and Colombia. Upon returning to the US, Sean moved to Montana, where he guides clients in Yellowstone National Park and writes about the great outdoors. In this conversation, we focus on his passion to raise awareness of the plight of the highly endangered Vaquita Porpoise through his 1000-mile stand-up paddleboard expedition down the length of the Gulf of California. Jansen survived the perilous journey with the help of Slow Baja Alums, Michael Younghusband and Graham Mackintosh. He’s written a beautiful account of the voyage titled, Paddling With Porpoise, which is available on Amazon. After more than a year in the works, I am delighted to share this conversation about Jansen’s journey through recovery, discovery, and conservation, paddling down the second-longest peninsula on the planet.100% of the proceeds from this book will be donated to conservation.Learn more about Sean Jansen here:https://www.jansenjournals.com/Follow Sean on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/jansen_journals/Mentioned in this episode: Slow Baja Vintage Expedition:https://www.slowbaja.com/adventures/slow-baja-vintage-expedition-1Buy Baja Bound Insurance here:https://www.bajabound.com/quote/?r=fl9vypdv2t
