I want to thank all of the kind souls who helped me arrive at the ends of the earth….
First my mares Life and Doll, Andariega and Cautiva and my boys Sapo and Picasso. Without these extraordinary animals, I would not have advanced 1 single kilometer.
I want to thank NC2 Media for believing in me since day one, when I was just a kid with a dream, and for allowing me to share this journey with people around the world.
To my sponsors, Goyazes, The Toronto Star, Pro-Horse Saddles, Radade, Pralana, Os Independentes, The Solanet Family, The Arruda Family and the Lanfranco Family, this journey is as much yours as it is mine.
To my own family, thank you for giving me wings to dream and always supporting me in my life’s decisions. Even though they have kept you up with worry most nights during these past 5 years.
My friends in Canada who I love and miss more than anything, you guys are a blessing in my life. See you soon.
To all of the people who helped me along the way… You are but saints who guided me to my destination. I will never be able to thank all of you properly.
Finally, to you, yes you, thank you for following along! All of your comments, prayers and positive energy helped me tremendously these past 15 months on the road.
Follow your dreams and never give up!
See you out there on the trail.
Filipe
