Brazilian traveller and writer Aleisha Belov announced plans for a joint expedition with Russian captain Sergey Shcherbakov along the Northern Sea Route. He told about it at a meeting in the International Multimedia Centre
“Eurasia Today”, a partner of TV BRICS, noting that the start of the expedition is planned for 2025.

Aleisha Belov, who has five round-the-world voyages to his credit (three of them solo), explained that his long-time dream was to circumnavigate the Eurasian continent and reach the Arctic. 

He met Sergey Scherbakov during a train journey from Moscow to Vladivostok, where they discussed an upcoming expedition to Antarctica. During this meeting, Belov suggested a stop in his hometown, El Salvador, which was the beginning of their co-operation.

Belov emphasised that the need to complete the journey by the end of August is critical to avoid ice.
