My name is Machu, I'm coming from Cabo Verde.
When I started, I was kind of nervous, you know, and started to do something that I never
did before, and especially, it's a 600 kilometer.
It's like I'm going from Cabo Verde to Africa, you know, to Senegal.
It's like so long, so special, you know.
It would be very difficult to do a kite surfing as it used to be after this adventure.
My passion is about skiing and climbing, and so this brought me to all the most cold places
from the South Pole, North Pole.
The idea of going to those places is to find the adventure.
Kitesurf in places where you are alone with your new friends, new find friends, and enjoy
and share the feeling at the end of the day.
It's very similar to my skiing experience in the end, because it's definitely the adventure
that makes special the trip.
Kiyahi D'Aboros, who had been one of the guides, he said, try these guys, because they're
pretty cool, and do the Delta trip, because it's the wildest one I've ever been to Brazil
before, so let's do a downwind.
It's unbelievable.
Sometimes you're just riding and you stop in some places, you see boats, you see small
houses in the middle of nothing.
Yesterday I saw one of the biggest rivers I ever saw in my life, you know, it was so
huge.
Every time I pass through this Delta, it's an incredible emotion, and sharing it with
other people, making this journey with people on the side, seeing the sea all colorful, full
of kite, and the joy in people's faces, which is the most incredible.
This gives me more satisfaction when I get to the end, look at the faces of people,
see an incredible smile, a sensational experience of gastronomy, a place to stay, wind, waves.
I've already known Vanda before, from other times here, I've met Matiu now, and just
seeing them walk is an inspiration, and we exchange these information, they're very
cool.
We get out of here, for sure, with a better level of beauty, not just by practicing, but
also by getting their feedback.
My expectation was to be sailing, and in the end, sailing is part of the process.
You're looking at the lives of people, several times you sail a kilometer, you can't
see anything, you just have the nature, the sun and the water, and the wind all the time,
and then at the end of the beach there's a little house, and you pass by, there's a fisherman
alone there, playing his king, and it's funny, you look, you see, you pass by, the guy
looks at you, opens a smile, speaks to you, and you say, damn it.
You made me, you made me, you made me, right or when you made me, made me.
