"I want to travel more, but…(a place for your reason)." Try to say these words to a person who has the whole world in his pocket, who has only one country left to visit on our planet. For a person who has been traveling non-stop for almost 25 years and spends only one month a year in Lithuania. For a person who travels through the impenetrable forests of Atograži, deserts without water or remote tribes smoking donkey dung. This person is a die-hard traveler Dan Pankevičius or Dan Around The World. Both my life, and probably yours, are radically different from Dan's, so when I talked with him, I sometimes felt like I was in front of a person from another planet: why exactly this way of life? Where did you get so much courage? How do you have enough money to travel around the world? What about relationships? The other side? Friends? What is the most difficult part of traveling constantly, what are the disadvantages of such a lifestyle? How does it feel to be constantly in the discomfort zone? And how does it feel to look death in the eye so often? The answers to these and many other questions, I believe, will whet your appetite not only for travel, but for life in general, will help you re-examine societal norms, and maybe even awaken the desire to do what YOU really want, not what others expect of you . Dan is one of the most prominent examples of this. And where else are his stories from the most remote parts of the world, just listening to which makes the whole body go gaga.
