Sage Erickson’s pretty great. She’s beautiful. She’s got a smile that makes the whole building brighter. She surfs like a demon, looks like a goddess, and we’ll be damned if she’s not the cutest thing on a surfboard this side of the moon. But how does one lone man convince such a divine creature to spend a few meager hours with him? Trickery? Riches? Fame and fortune? Nope. Turns out it’s pretty simple–Sage doesn’t need lavish dinners, peeled grapes, or to be promised the moon. Just coffee and a bit of persistence might do the trick. Out of the mouths of babes–or rather, out of the mouth of the babe–here are 5 ways you might just be able to hang with Sage Erickson.
You don’t need flash. Just caffeine.
1. Coffee for a first date.
Coffee is a great ice breaker, and usually brings up the enthusiasm while getting know each other..
Who has two fingers and drops names? That guy.
2. Don’t drop names.
I’d rather be impressed by him instead of who he knows.

3. Be familiar with the ocean.
After all, I do spend a lot of time in it.

4. Be persistent.
I don’t mind a bit of persistency when it comes to interest, even if i don’t text back…I’m terrible at texting.

5. Have a creative hobby.
A guy that does something creative in his spare time is the first thing I’m wowed by most of the time.
