Many people dream of traveling the world, but they all have the same excuse: lack of money. Tomislav, after traveling the world for years with almost no money, shows how it is possible for everyone to do the same, if they really want to.

Tomislav Perko, 29, is a Croatian travel writer. After a career as a stockbroker, shattered by the financial crisis, he hit the road and made it his home. He uses alternative means of transportation – hitchhiking, couchsurfing, working/volunteering, and manages to travel the world with just a little money in his pocket, meeting the most extraordinary people along the way.

Five years later, he published a book “1000 Days of Spring” and gave lectures on what it means to live on the road. Find out more on his website: http://tomislavperko.com/en/.
