Journey of kindness

Besides the life-threatening moments, Han has shared his more memorable experiences of meeting new places and people in his blog.

On his adventure, which has lasted around 400 days, Han has posted around 200 short videos. Through his lens, his followers have "visited" many popular destinations around the world, including the Mello Bookstore in Porto, Portugal, which is claimed to be the most beautiful bookstore in the world, the popular Navagio beach on the Greek island of Zakynthos, the Tasmanian Bay in Australia which lights up with blue algae, Italy's Sicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, and Erta Ale, a continuously active basaltic shield volcano in Ethiopia.

While enjoying these beautiful scenes, Han has experienced acts of kindness from around the world, making his voyage even better.

During a stop in France, Han met a father and son from Germany at a petrol station, who offered to drive him to the port. Han gave the boy a panda toy as a thank you gift.

A French fisherman gave Han a freshly caught King crab and Han reciprocated with his only spare head lamp and explained how to use and charge the device.

"When people help you, you must do something in return, because most of them you will never meet again in your life," Han said in his video, adding that small acts of kindness make people happy.

In Greece, Han met a 93-year-old British man. The retired British Airways captain admired Han's courage saying that skippers sail into a storm, while pilots fly over them.

Kindness is not only limited to humans, but can also be proffered to nature.

In late December, Han arrived in Cyprus, well known for its beautiful coastline, but he was sad to see so many plastic bottles scattered all over the beach. He picked up as many he could.

"The beaches in a trash-free Cyprus can be called the most beautiful coasts," Han said in his blog, calling for the public to do something to protect the environment.

He will stay in Oman until August, and then start to cross the Indian Ocean, Arriving at an international port in India, before sailing on to the Maldives, Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Thailand.

Picturing his life after the voyage, Han said in his video that he wants to open a sailing and diving organization in a coastal city, bringing the joy of a marine lifestyle to more people.

"It is time to realize my next dream－to return to my family," the man smiles.
