Guim Teruel began his journey around the world alone, departing from Beijing in China. During his journey, he traveled 14,000km, passing through 11 countries and territories including China, South Korea, Hong Kong, Macau, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia, New Zealand, Australia and Vietnam.
He arrived in Vietnam in 2009 and was interviewed by Nguyen Thuy Anh, a reporter from Vietnam Television’s Channel VTV6. They fell in love and later got married in 2010.
Teruel and his wife will continue the journey from Hanoi on February 18 to London in the U.K., traveling through 20 more countries including Laos, Thailand, India, Pakistan, Turkey, Greece, Persia, Italy, Spain, France, Belgium and Poland.
During their journey, the couple will write articles and film short video-clips of the places they have visited and send them to Channel VTV6 to broadcast, Thuy Anh said.
