My journey started in 2014 when I quitted my corporate career. Between mid 2014 and end of 2015 I travelled in Europe, Africa and Asia. When my budget was almost in the end I lived and worked 10 months in Australia and 6 months in New Zealand, saving up almost 30 thousand US dollars. With this money I traveled the following one and a half year without working.
In the second semester of 2017 I traveled in South America. The following year I kept traveling, 3 months sailing in the USA and the Bahamas and visiting a few countries in the Caribbean. The entire second semester of 2018 I visited almost all the remain countries of Europe, Caucasus, Iran and came back to Brazil.
It was time to work again, so I found my self a job in a cruise ship where I lived on this boat in the first semester of 2019 and saved almost 7 thousand euros.
With this money I travelled the entire second semester of 2019, visiting Europe, few countries in Asia and Middle East. From Lebanon I flew to Austria to work in a Ski resort where I stayed till end of March 2020. The coronavirus outbreak shut all hotels in the region down and I flew home, to Brazil where I stayed for one and a half year working as sailing instructor.
I Flew to Trinidad and Tobago in November 2021 and spent 10 months in the Caribbean region visiting nearly all Caribbean Islands and working as First Mate and Captain in Luxury Catamarans.
With the savings I went to Africa in the beginning of 2023 where I traveled by land from Mauritania to Benin during the course of 97 days, in the hardest adventures of my life. I published a book in Amazon THE LAST TRIP IN WEST AFRICA about this experience. Some of my challenges included getting Malaria, Typhoid fiver, diarrhea and traveling for 24 hours in a 8 set car with 12 people inside.
On the same year I worked as Yacht Captain in Croatia and Waiter in Norway. With the savings I the remain of 2023 I traveled in Asia and Middle East in the most difficult countries, Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Buthan, Maldives.
In beginning of 2024 I went to Africa and visited the east region, going to Madagascar, Comoros, Seychelles, Burundi, Rwanda, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Ethiopia and a few more countries. Second semester I traveled by boat from Denmark to Spain.
January 2025 I moved to Prague with my partner, that I met in Norway and where I will be living the entire year.
