Ask Molly

Tuna bake. Or a good steak and veggies.
What is your all-time favorite song? Or songs?
Lost in Japan remix, intentions, UCLA
If you weren’t a professional surfer what would you be?
I love animals so maybe something to do with helping animals for the better.

My phone, hat, sunglasses, wetsuit, and surfboard.

A pickle takes on the world.
What’s your favorite place you’ve ever travelled to?
