#24 Background's Sunday: Your Weekly Moment is Here!

Hey there, Happy Sunday!

How many things do we leave behind when we finally find the courage to do what we truly want? And who actually likes losing in a world where it feels like we never have enough time? But can we really win without losing first? How can we make space for new things if we’re not willing to let go of the old?

We don’t have the answers, but we do have a story that might help if any of these questions hit home—Aidan Doyle’s. A traveler who spent 964 days on the road, covering 67,000 kilometers and crossing 15 countries on his way to Argentina.

The Background team sat down with him, and we’re grateful to share his journey. He saw incredible places, but what stands out the most isn’t the landscapes—it’s the people he met and the emotions he felt along the way.

And we believe that’s what life is really about: the people we meet, the stories we share, and the moments that move us. We don’t have all the answers, but we do know one thing—chasing what matters will always be worth it. Even if it means losing first.
