🚢 Yes, I was a sailor on the Nao Trinidad.
And no — it wasn’t a reenactment. It was real.
In 2023, I crossed the Atlantic to the U.S. as part of the crew on this historical ship — a replica of the one that sailed with Magellan and Elcano on the first voyage around the world.
For months, I lived and worked on board a floating museum, bringing history to life, port by port.
No screens, no notifications — just wind, wood, and the open sea.
đź—ž In Charlotte, North Carolina, they interviewed me about the journey.

Being a sailor there was the rawest form of storytelling I’ve ever experienced.
You live it first — then you tell it.
Thank you, FundaciĂłn Nao Victoria, for keeping this dream afloat.
And thank you, ocean… for reminding me that every good story begins with a leap into the unknown.
