A man in the United Kingdom found a unique solution to save money on fuel and parking spaces, NDTV reported.

Alex Kell, who is a financial planner, paddleboards to work, saving about 2,500 pounds annually in petrol and parking costs.

“I've paddleboarded for about five or six years,” NDTV quoted Kell as saying. 

“A couple of years ago, I moved to a location that put me right on the water, so it allowed me to paddleboard not only in my free time, but also as my daily commute,” he added.

The 38-year-old paddles a mile up the Gloucester-Sharpness Canal to work. He says that experience also helps him maintain a good mental health.

Kell frequently shares his experience and adventures on Instagram. One of his post says, "Back on the morning commute in style today."
