Inspiring Travelers: Elizabeth Sneed of Curvy Surfer Girl

Late one night, trying to psych myself up for an upcoming surf trip to Costa Rica, I was perusing Instagram and stumbled upon a post from Curvy Surfer Girl, a profile for a surfer named Elizabeth Sneed. Not only was Elizabeth a plus-size surfer looking happy and healthy in a bikini, she was shredding! I spent probably the next hour scrolling through her profile, and quickly realized that Elizabeth was an athlete in every sense of the word. She hikes, she free dives, she surfs and looks damn good doing it all. I loved her message of being a "body positive surfer" and of course, all of the scenic Hawaiian surf spots Elizabeth posted. I saw in Elizabeth something powerful- the love of surfing and all it has to offer regardless of what others thought.
