Jaw-dropping coastal views, bizarre mountain sceneries, narrow pathways through enchanted primeval forests and an ocean full of colorful flowers – all to be found on this unique gem in midst the Atlantic Ocean. But so can be unpredictable weather, stiff winds, exhausting ascents and dangerously narrow walkways on 500m-cliffs. Within the 6 days of crossing the island on foot, I got to experience all of Madeira's faces and although at moments close to giving up, it was one of the most inspiring experiences of my life.
