Autio co-founder Woody Sears sets off on the road trip of a lifetime: a Subaru-powered surf safari down the Pacific Coast of Mexico. Over five months, he learns to surf by camping on the sands of Baja and cruising from Sinaloa to Oaxaca.

More than two decades after his epic journey, Woody reflects on the lessons surfing taught him about the world and how the love of adventure spawned on his trip helped create Autio, a digital road trip companion that's accompanying himself and co-founder Kevin Costner on adventures today.
