Alex, paddling towards the Americas

He had left from Genoa the 18th of September, 2005. Alex Bellini , who was born near my small town (that is in the mountains!), has crossed the whole Atlantic Ocean alone with the only power of his arms. He has finally landed on the coastsĀ  of Latin America the last Sunday, near Fortaleza (Brasil).

I was not there, but I can imagine seven months of hard fights against the uncontrollable ocean and its traps! Maybe a methodical adventure, but surely a genuine nomadic travel. And above all a lot of courage and determination, many compliments…
