Hi!

​

My name is Rui Ferreira, I am a travel blogger, fitness enthusiast and ketogenic diet follower from Portugal.

​

I use my professional experience in the travel industry, my degree in Journalism and my passion for fitness to do what I love the most: travel and produce content about my experiences around the world while trying to stay fit and influence other people to do the same.

​

My passion for travelling started when I was a kid living in Switzerland with my family. Born in Coimbra, I was 1 year old when I went to Geneva with my parents who were looking for a better professional life.

​

I was lucky to live near Geneva's Airport and felt always excited watching the airplanes taking off or landing so close to my house. However, low cost carriers didn't really exist at the time, so my idea was to study with the purpose to find a job that would allow me to travel the world and spend as less money as possible.

​

I decided then to study journalism so I could combine two passions: travelling and sports, specially football. I played football for many years as amateur and had also the dream to become a professional footballer but that never happened so becoming a sports journalist was my focus. 

​

In 2013, after I graduated, I got an invitation from a friend to work for an online travel agency as customer service representative. I decided then to put my career as sports journalist in stand-by and explore this new path, which allowed me to learn so much about the travel business and to be able to travel a lot.

​

Since then, I visited over 20 different countries and my project now is to complete my travel «bucketlist» and share with you my experiences, inspiring you to travel more and better, while keeping an healthy and fit life.

 

I practice amateur bodybuilding for more than 10 years and started when I gave up on playing football, trying to stay fit doing some sport. It soon became an healthy addiction and 5 years ago I got the honor to win the competition for the «body of the year» promoted by Men's Health Portugal, being in the main cover of the magazine in December 2013.

Now I want to inspire you also to get your dream body because a busy schedule, even while travelling, isn't an excuse...everything is possible with a plan, focus and hard work.

​

I'm following a cyclical ketogenic diet since 2013 and I want to share with you my experience in that nutritional area. This lifestyle diet had a huge impact in my life, changing completely my high carb daily eating routine for an healthier and simpler one, allowing me to have more free time and focus on other topics than food, while keeping me in a fit shape all year round without going through hard bulk and cut phases. 

​

This blog has the purpose to give you the tools to travel smarter and to get in the best shape of your life at the same time. My content ranges from travel narratives to travel tips, hotel reviews, diet and fitness advices, suggestions of recipes and exercises and other tips to help you organize your fit vacations. If you work in the hospitality industry you can also hire my services of travel photography, video production and hotel advertising.

​

If you have comments, suggestions, need travel advices or want to advertise in my website/social media, please send me an E-mail. I’ll be glad to help you.

You can also follow me on Instagram.

Stay tuned and have fun and fit travels!
