Around the world with Slovenian traveller

Meet Žan Rebolj, a traveller and a volunteer who has decided to quit his job and set off on an adventure – walking around the world. He began his journey in the north and as he makes his way south, he’s been sharing his memories and experiences with us in the Globetrotter magazine, the premier web-newspaper for travelling and youth tourism.

Žan`s story began during his childhood, when he used to like dreaming about foreign places and destinations that were far away. Over the years, his love for travel grew ever greater and his dreams became a reality: "When I travel, I learn, broaden my own horizons and share the knowledge with others.”

His journeying took him to Scotland, where he learned a lot about healthy lifestyles and food. With this new knowledge, he started to write his blog, Travel Fairytale. Žan’s vegan lifestyle and travel adventures came together in his Eco Vegan World Walking Mission. At the beginning of 2016, he started in Scotland and is now continuing his walk around the world. He is currently on the Coast Path in England and will continue through the Netherlands, Germany and France to the Jacob path, leading to the Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage. In spring 2017, he plans to finish the journey across Europe and continue with his mission in the USA. Žan’s dream is to walk the 2,160-mile long (around 3,500 kilometres) Appalachian Trail on the east coast, which is known to be the longest hiking trail in the world.
