@maria.perles Current mission: To round the world by land and sea Hi all! I am Maria, a Spanish girl which country is too small for. I studied Environmental Sciences because I love nature, and travel is my main hobby. I am from Alicante ("nací en el Mediterráneo" 😉 ) but I've been living in Granada, Madrid, Germany, Poland, Kyrgyzstan and China. I like to discuss about politics and about how to create a fair and sustainable world, but i also can joy small talks, always better with a beer in front. I've been living in Leipzig (Germany) for five years before my trip, doing a PhD studying subtropical forest from China. I finished it in 2022 and started this travel project where I am trying to round the world without flying. I crossed the Atlantic on a sailing boat, traveled through Latinoamerica from Ushuaia (Argentina) to San Francisco, crossed the Pacific on a cruise ship and in Australia I joined another sailing boat to come to Asia and spend many days in trains to arrive here! -------------------------- Española a la que su país se le quedó muy pequeño. Estudié ambientales porque me encanta la naturaleza y acabé haciendo un doctorado sobre bosques subtropicales. Terminé el año pasado y ahora estoy tratando de dar la vuelta al mundo sin avión. De momento he conseguido cruzar el Atlántico, recorrerme América de Ushuaia a San Francisco, cruzar el Pacífico, navegar de Australia por las islas de Indonesia y darme una buena vuelta por los trenes y buses asiáticos!
