Nicolò Guarrera aka 'Pieroad,' quit his job one day in Italy and decided to see the world — on foot. Now on a mammoth 35,000km walk, he couldn't skip Australia which he had already visited many years ago.
After Europe, South America and Australia, he will walk back home via India.
By the time you read this, he would have walked through three continents and ready for the fourth, covering approximately 35,000km.It was May 2020, and the world was facing the COVID-19 pandemic. Ezio is not a fellow Italian walker, but a trolley in which Nicolò carries everything he needs to survive the trudge.
He says he saved as much money as possible while planning the finest details of the trip like his itinerary, resting areas, food and other supplies.“I have already gone through 14 pairs," he laughs.Nicolò built his image through his walk, and sponsors began to walk with him. "I wake up early, at around 6am and try to complete nearly 60 per cent of my daily target of 30-50 km in the morning," Nicolò says."If I sleep in the wild, I aim to wind everything up by around 5pm, because when the sun goes down, it gets pitch dark," he adds.
