Billabong Home Series | Pacha Light

Our “Home” series takes us all around the world, and is a deeper dive into the unique stories each one of our surfers has to tell-celebrating their families, cultures, and countries while we’re at it.
For Pacha Lina Luque Light, “home” was never as straightforward as four walls and a roof. Born in Ecuador and raised beach-side in Australia, with six-month long stints back in the Andean cloud forest, most of Pacha’s childhood was spent off-grid in one way or another. From a young age, Pacha’s mother Anja (an environmental activist and musician) raised her with the notion that “home” is far more than a house-it’s the people and community you surround yourself with.

I feel like Pacha is one of the few people left who isn’t consumed by materialism and is truly connected to and cares about our planet. Bless you, Pacha!

This video was really inspiring! ☄️Thank you a lot Pacha for showing us your beautiful home full of love and beautiful nature! And I have the feeling, that if more people grew up with such a connection to nature like you Pacha, we would have way less problems on this world. All the best! :)
