parallels between atlantic city and nazare (besides the invisible bridge)

if you could build a bridge straight out from atlantic city and just keep going until you hit land, there’s a pretty good chance you’d end up somewhere near one of my bucket list spots: nazaré.

in this piece we walk the streets of nazaré, looking at what feels familiar and what doesn’t. where you might sit and smoke a cigarette. how a place built around giant waves compares to one built around giant bets. over there you gamble with big wave surfing, over here you gamble with big wave blackjack.
