Overview
About Me
After 14 years working in business consulting, I've decided to search for new inspirations in life. Then, came the idea of traveling by bike through Europe and Southeast Asia. It took 9 months of travelling (Spain, France, Singapore, Malasya and Thailand) until the pandemic hit and I had to return home.
I am currently living in Brazil planning upcoming destinations!!
