little adventures in big sur | OTIS Eyewear

 

over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to travel to some really beautiful places. but, having been born and raised in coastal California, home isn’t so bad either.

I grew up an hour south of Big Sur so, in addition to the mystique the place holds, it also feels like home in a way. I don’t think I’ll ever come close to discovering all of the mysteries of the region and it keeps me coming back year after year. last fall, i had the opportunity to foray once more into the mystic woods, with none other than my best friend, Austin, in tow.

 
 

There’s something truly life-altering about travel. Striking out from the bustle and routines to find some peace of mind or a new perspective. The thing is though, travel doesn’t need to mean plane tickets and exotic destinations. It doesn’t need months of planning or bank-account-draining budgets. Sometimes a creative adventure in your backyard can be just as compelling. Just as eye opening. 

OTIS Ambassador Corina Rose proved this recently when she struck out to explore somewhere close to home. Big Sur, between LA and San Francisco, is iconic in its own right. A wide open space of stunning natural beauty separating two mega cities. We asked Cori to document the adventure through her own unique perspective – a mix of local knowledge meets artist’s curiosity.
