About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy my life, meet new people, try new and different way to travel and collect beautiful experience.

ABOUT ME

I deeply love to travel and I prefer backpacking trips and to be far away from mass tourism.

I like planning my journey from home and I'm really sad when the adventure is over, when I have to return.
When I come back home I start again choosing and planning my new trip.

My first aim is to travel and never stop ... a journey after another, like the pages of a book.
To me meet new people and know something new is the most important part of the journey.

I started traveling when I was 20, my first trip was Zanzibar. And from that first time, travelling has become my first love, followed by photography, reading and trying ethnic cuisine.

After Zanzibar I went to Egypt, where I pushed myself beyond the usual resorts and organized excursions for the first time. I climbed Mount Sinai at night and wait for a new dawn on the summit, I did snorkeling in the blue hole of Dahab and wandered around the souk in Sharm el Sheik.

I met Paris and ate a real French baguette. I walked through Montmartre and the Champs Elysee and I reached the top of the Eiffel Tower.

And then I went in Thailand where a public demonstration held me a week longer than expected. In a month's journey I flew from Bangkok to Chiang Mai to Phuket. I visited Chiang Rai and its beautiful white temple (still under construction), Ko Phi Phi, Krabi and Ayutthaya.

After that, Boa Vista, I have traveled far and wide on the edge of a quad. From the beautiful beaches like Santa Monica, to the desert of Viana, to small and remote towns such as Joao Galego and Fundo das Figueiras.

I had a great experience in Australia, where I lived and worked for four months as WWOOFer at several houses scattered between New South Wales and Queensland. I ate the best nooodles in Sydney and walked the Manly Scenic Walk 10 km route. I have visited several times Brisbane and I immersed myself in its markets.

And then Morocco, Budapest, London and Barcelona.

Fortunately I still feel like travel a lot... Cant wait to read another page of this stunning book: the World.

PHILOSOPHY

I do believe that travelling is the only way to know people and yourself.
