Kind regards,
My name is Slaven Škrobot, I am an adventurer, travel writer, travel blogger, and humanitarian.
Despite my disability (quadriplegia), I decided to live life to the fullest and travel the world. I write about my travels and the problems I face on my blog and try to educate people about my injury and life with a disability. The goal is to educate, encourage, motivate, and inspire people to dare to follow and live their dreams.
I travel to exotic destinations outside the routes provided for people with disabilities in the simplest possible way, breaking down all barriers and stereotypes.
I have some achievements so far, so just you know I've been doing similar things to this;
- The first person in the world in a wheelchair who climbed up to the Monastery in Petra
- Traveler of the year for 2020 in Croatia
- The first person in the world in a wheelchair who climbed Mount Sinai in Egypt
- Handcycled 3,500 km from Savudrija to Istanbul to gather money for four adaptive bikes.
- Traveler of the year for 2022 in Croatia
- The best travel project for 2022 in Croatia
- The first person in the world in a wheelchair to climb Pidurangal in Sri Lanka
- Visited the most remote Croatian islands, Palagruža, Jabuka and Sušac
- Climbed volcanoes Bromo and Ijen in Indonesia (2700 m)
- Best traveler with a disability in the world 2023
- Voted „pride of Croatia“ in 2023
Why am I reaching out?
At the middle of January, I am planning a multi-month trip to South America and, starting with Brazil and, if there is time, to Pantanal! If you ask me about my dream in South America, then I would say it is to see a wild jaguar with my own eyes! I randomly found you on the Internet and I am very interested in coming to your place if you are open to it?
I don't even know if you take people on tours, how you do them if you do (trekking, boat, or jeep), and if mid-January is a good time to visit? If you don't take people on tours, could you recommend me someplace to go where I have a higher chance of spotting a jaguar?
If you do, I'm coming with three guys that are helping me, but if the only option is hard trekking through dense vegetation, then we'd need more people!
What do you say?
