Tired of working in IT and staying the same in Australia, Paulo Cattaneo decided to make a change. He started a strict budget so he could save up enough money to buy his dream KTM 1190 motorbike, a camera, and enough funds to support himself for a few years.
Then he gave up his job, packed his things, and set off on an adventure, travelling the world on his motorbike. Paulo, 39, has since spent the last five years biking through Australia, South America, North America, and Europe, riding up to 12 hours a day and spending his nights under the stars.
Sadly, the Covid-19 put a stop to his travels in Greece, and Paulo has had to spend the last few months in Italy, his homeland. Once the world is back up and running, he plans to return to life on the road and explore Asia and Africa.
“Australia for me was my first experience riding long distance and I was mind blown by the beauty,” he said. “Traveling through Latin America, I learned Spanish and Portuguese. Mexico has some of the best food I ever had and Peru is a close second and Ecuador.” Paulo has managed to keep his travels going by keeping his budget tight, so he hasn’t had to get a job for his travels. To keep costs low, he skips hotels and goes camping instead.
Thankfully, the motorbike, which Paulo bought secondhand in Australia, has not required any major repairs since he set off. The journey isn’t always easy, but Paulo has never looked back.
