Spaces in Between

With no previous cycling experience, Johanna Brebner sets out to bike the length of her childhood home, Aotearoa New Zealand, surfboard in tow. Returning after a decade away, she packs her life onto a bike and travels more than 2,000 kilometres across the country in search of reconnection and a few waves along the way.
