From 2011 to 2012 I was lucky enough to be able to travel around the world.

My backpack and I left Rome for eight months travelling towards the EASY, living a continuous summer across all the continents and experiencing incredible and unrepeatable experiences.

The thrill of a hunting lioness, the feeling os being so small on the Great Wall and the magic on Easter Island, dancing all the night at the Full Moon Party, participating in the Carnival in the Rio Sambadrome. But there was also the fear of dying under a landslide, the terror of being surrounded by a shark and feeling smelled by 'something', in the dark Amazon forest night. The risk of getting lost in the Patagonia and the anger of been robbed halfway through the trip.  On a bike with Cambodians, surfing with Australians, playing football on the beach with Brazilians, drinking wine with Argentines... everyday was a new story with new people, giving me the priceless feeling of having the freedom to manage and live every day of ,y life.

There are so many and so strong emotions that will remain indelible forever in my memory and for my whole life.

In these pages you will find, day by day, some short stories about the greatest adventure of my life

Coast to Coast

On my way to the north of Brasil I set a few stop on a couple of cities: Curitiba (MAP), a colonial settlement on the Sao Paolo province, and Paraty (MAP), a tiny lovely village close to the border with Rio the Janeiro province.

Curitiba

Curitiba must be a nice place to live: well organized, beautiful colonial architecture, tidy and clean.

Paraty is a really small city, yet its historical center is just awesome.

Besides the weather not being helpful, those white houses and coulored doors are really beautiful, a couple of hours of walking are enough, still worth a quick visit.
