This summer, I’m swapping my slippers for sneakers and racing across Europe—yes, the entire continent! I will be using only Bus, Trains, Ferries and my own legs. Why, you ask? Because apparently, I have pathological trouble to relax on the beach. But more importantly, I’m doing it to raise money for two fantastic causes: restoring a beautiful old building that’s seen more history than my Google searches, and championing the environment (because polar bears and ancient architecture both deserve a fighting chance).

Picture me dodging baguettes in France, outrunning meatballs in Sweden, and possibly getting lost somewhere in the Alps—all while knowing your donation is making a real difference. Every euro you give helps patch up crumbling walls and plant new trees where it’s needed most. Think of it as sponsoring both a time traveler and a tree hugger in one go.

If you’ve ever wanted to say, “I helped save the planet and a piece of history,” now’s your chance. Donate today, share my campaign with your friends, and follow along as I attempt to cross borders with nothing but determination, questionable athleticism, and an unwavering love for both old buildings and clean air. Your support means the world (and might just help me survive this adventure). Let’s race ; one awkward selfie at a time! There is even an Instagram to see them : @hugo.places
