About you
Why do you travel and look for adventures?
Since I was a kid, I knew I wanted to travel the world. I had it in my gut that I wanted to explore and see whatever was out there, that feeling of freedom, the butterflies in my stomach. I never really had the resources to travel the world, but with the support of my family, when I traveled abroad for the first time in my life all by myself, I just knew I needed to do it.
There is a sentence that I really like, whose author is Brazilian, that says “Travel is changing clothes of the soul” and he could not describe it better the meaning of what traveling means. When we travel, we learn about new cultures, new languages, and people with different backgrounds, these experiences are priceless. This is why I travel, not just to visit different countries all around the world, but because we always learn something new.

Got any gear you can’t travel without?
What destination are you eager to go back to?
Thailand was one of my favorite countries in South East Asia and I’m definitely looking forward to go back to when I can. I don’t have anything to complain about it, people are so friendly and welcoming (even though they rarely speak English, they always try to find a way to communicate with us), the food is really good, the nature, and on top of everything, it’s a super affordable country to travel.
