The Latvian news portal Apollo.lv has published a piece in memory of Kārlis Bardelis, a world traveller. Its headline carries his outlook: "If not now, when? Life is happening right now!"
Bardelis was a man who literally rowed across three oceans. The source stresses that he lived not at one hundred percent but at a full 150.
A message for others
In one of his interviews, the traveller said there is no list of the five best ways to begin pursuing a big goal. In his view, you simply wake up in the morning and row, because that is how you get closer to your aim. His advice was to climb in and get going without overthinking it.
The available excerpt of the article gives no further details about his journeys or life.
