10 Reasons You Should Know (and Admire) Foster Huntington.

1 - He's the author of "A Restless Transplant," a blog where we can find photos of his experiences traveling in a van with his friends, his sleeping bag, and his surfboard. This blog , which he hasn't posted on for a while, was quite famous in the surfing world and got him noticed by Ralph Lauren .

2 - At just 23 years old, Ralph Lauren offered Huntington a position in his design department . He hesitated, as his approach to life didn't fit with working in a big-city office, but he ultimately accepted the job in New York .

3 - After a while working in New York and not satisfied with city life, Foster quit his job, sold everything he owned except the bare necessities, bought an old van and hit the road to tour the west of the country surfing all along the Pacific coast.

4 - He started a new photography blog called “The Burning House” ( http://theburninghouse.com/ ) where he asked readers to send in photos of belongings they would never buy again if lost. This blog caught the attention of a publisher, and it was turned into a highly successful book.

5 - He released a photo book called "Home Is Where You Park It," which features vans and campervans Huntington found along his surfing journey. This book is a true delight (I have a copy myself).

6 - Her Instagram profile has more than a million followers, and best of all, some brutal photos. ( @fosterhunting )

7 - He has an online business, which allows him to work from almost anywhere in the world.

8 - In 2014, he began building his own house, and not just any house. He built his tree house with some friends. It's located in Washington State, in the northwestern United States, near the Columbia River. Here are some photos and a link to a short documentary about the house's construction. It's mind-blowing.

9 - He has his own skate park under his house, which he also built himself. If you've seen the previous video, you can check it out. In case you haven't, I'll leave a photo here.

10 - He also built his own jacuzzi…
