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

Wild Floripa

Once you get sick of getting a bus (bycicle, taxi) to easily reach a beach in Florianopolis (SEE PREVIOUS ARTICLE), and/or simply you want some more adventure or privacy, there are plenty of activities to do everyday.

Campeche island is just 30 minutes by boat from the city of Campeche, on the east coast of Floripa. It is a preserved national site with incredible landscapes.

... of course a white-sand and blue-water beach can't be missing.

If you dare to trek in the jungle surrounding this small island, you will see stunning landscapes and ... also the misterious remains of a extinguished civilization which inhabited this place more than 3000 years ago.

Another impressive treck is the one that leads to Lagoinha do leste. It's more than 2 hours walking inside forest, jungle, open air, crossing (and swimming) into rivers... under an extremely hot sun the path never seem to end when... all of a sudden the last hill is over and a pristine beach appears in the distance: it was DEFINITELY worth the effort.

The place is so calm, nobody is around. A whole private beach for me. Besides the lagune water is so hot that... one can stay here forever.

Unfortunately it is getting dark and sooner or later (unless you camp there, which would have been a brilliant idea) you gotta go back to civilization - and of course to crazy night parties...night is about to come again...
