about the project
Throughout our journeys, we realized that our most different decisions were the ones that provided us with the best experiences. The desire to meet more people who think differently and also to inspire others to do the same led us to, one day, ask each other: are we crazy enough to spread this message around the world, leaving everything behind? For us, this trip is much more than Diogo and Isabela's trip. We aim to create a movement that inspires people to be "Crazy Enough" to pursue their dreams and change the world in their own way. Because we believe that you don't need to be crazy to do remarkable things. You just need to be "CRAZY ENOUGH"!

We will depart from Portugal, and the first destination of our trip around the world will be Brazil. We already have a pre-defined roadmap for the whole trip; however, as our primary goal is to spread the @wearecrazyenough movement, changes may have to be made. The journey will end when we achieve our objective: “To take the movement to 6 continents and more than 20 countries.” Follow us on our social networks to also be part of this movement and to see the incredible experiences we will have in the four corners of the world.
For a person and/or organization to be considered “Crazy Enough”, they must have the following characteristics:
1) Inspiring;
2) Committed;
2) Visionary;
4) Adventurous.
For an action to be considered “Crazy Enough” it must have the following characteristics:
1) It’s inspiring or Remarkable;
2) It’s out of the ordinary, goes against the status quo;
3) It overcomes a significant personal challenge and/or creates a solution to an important problem;
4) It requires a great deal of courage.
Throughout our journeys, we realized that our most different decisions were the ones that provided us with the best experiences. The desire to meet more people who think differently and also to inspire others to do the same led us to, one day, ask each other: are we crazy enough to spread this message around the world, leaving everything behind?
For us, this trip is much more than Diogo and Isabela’s trip. We aim to create a movement that inspires people to be “Crazy Enough” to pursue their dreams and change the world in their own way. If this adventure somehow inspires you to be crazy enough to think and act differently in order to accomplish an important achievement in your life, then our mission has been well succeeded. Because we believe that you don’t need to be crazy to do remarkable things. You just need to be “Crazy Enough.
Our main objective is: To take the @wearecrazyenough movement to 6 continents and more than 20 countries.
We believe that for this movement to have a real impact on people, 4 fundamental actions will be necessary:
1) Find people and organizations who are already “Crazy Enough” and share their stories;
2) Encourage people to be “Crazy Enough”;
3) Challenge ourselves to carry out “Crazy Enough” actions, being genuine ambassadors of the philosophy “Crazy Enough”;
4) Apply the 3 previous actions in different parts of the world with different cultures, beliefs, and habits, to make the movement as international and complete as possible.
This movement aims to be a bridge between people who are already “Crazy Enough” and those who are yet to become.
All stories and adventures will be documented and shared on our social media through short, creative, and dynamic content.

We have been preparing for this trip for a while and will finance it entirely. For this to be viable, we had to make a tight savings plan, and we decided to sell all our material possessions, like our car and furniture. We decided to change our mindset and focus more on our experiences and less on our physical materials, staying only with what brings us true value. We planned the entire trip, considering the money we had saved. This doesn’t make sense to many people, and some call us crazy. Something that had already happened to us when we launched a book or even when we created our marketing company. You already know our answer to those people… We are not crazy. We’re just crazy enough to leave everything behind and embark on the greatest experience of our lives.

story: Doing Waterfall Rappel and returning via a 100 steps long metal staircase was crazy and challenging but we are glad that you made it!

"The people who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do."
how we will spread the movement @wearecrazyenough?
We will travel the world, across 6 continents, to meet amazing people and projects worldwide. We'll meet with non-profits, innovative companies, and amazing people who are crazy enough to believe that great things happen when they think and act differently. We believe this movement is not just for those who are creating great solutions for the world or who have achieved notable success in their lives. Therefore, we will also create content on the streets with random people from different countries to tell us stories of where they dared to think and make different decisions and how that impacted their lives.
As founders of this movement, one of the pillars we defined to spread @wearecrazyenough is to carry out "Crazy Enough" experiences and apply the philosophy that great things happen when we think and act differently. We are sure there will be many opportunities to be "Crazy Enough" around the globe, and we are ready to take and share those unique experiences worldwide.
@wearecrazyenough Art is one of the main vehicles for expressing our convictions, passions, and our view of the world. In a country surrounded by art, where graffiti has played, and continues to play, a vital role in claiming rights and conveying important messages to society, we couldn't miss the opportunity to leave our mark on Chile through graffiti. It's so cool to know that our project, which started in Portugal with two crazy people, is on a wall in Chile, telling people that IT IS WORTH BEING CRAZY, BECAUSE WITHOUT CRAZY PEOPLE, THE WORLD WOULDN'T MOVE FORWARD!!! Damn!!!! How good it is to be crazy!!!! ❤️ #fyp #fy #grafitti #art #crazyexperiences #crazyexperience #streetart ♬ original sound - Diogo & Isabela
