On the road with Dayo: from Belgium to Morocco

To live & create with less

You might recognize Dayo from his previous adventure—a 100-day road trip through the Balkans that even landed him on the cover of Sabato. That epic journey was just the beginning, and this time, Dayo is pushing his limits even further.

This new chapter is all about embracing simplicity—living and creating with less. His trusty old Land Rover will serve as both his home and creative studio, carrying him along the winding roads of Europe and into the heart of Morocco. This minimalist approach allows him to focus on storytelling, photography, and uncovering authentic, off-the-beaten-path experiences.

Taking the leap: a solo traveler's journey

After recently parting ways with his girlfriend and moving out of his apartment, Dayo found himself in a rare position—a moment of complete freedom. No kids, no major commitments, and the flexibility to work as a freelance filmmaker and photographer. For him, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take the leap into a long-term solo road trip adventure.

But this journey isn’t just about visiting new places. It’s also about building something meaningful for his career. Dayo is dedicating himself to content creation—growing his YouTube channel with weekly episodes, developing a unique storytelling format, and finding an audience that resonates with his slow, deliberate approach to travel.

His 100-day Balkans road trip was the trial run. This time? There’s no backup plan. It’s all or nothing.

Chasing the sun: from Normandy to Morocco

Dayo’s road trip begins by following the rugged coastlines of Normandy and Brittany in France. His first stop? Étretat, famous for its stunning white cliffs and dramatic coastal views, before heading south toward the iconic Mont-Saint-Michel. With Belgium behind him, Dayo will be chasing the sun—escaping the fall chill and following warmer weather across Europe.

His focus is on nature, beaches, scenic walks, and charming towns—ideal destinations for solo travelers looking for serenity and hidden gems. With his Land Rover packed with camera gear and essentials, city trips are off the table. Instead, Dayo is on a mission to uncover Europe's quiet corners and Morocco's breathtaking landscapes.

You can follow Dayo’s journey on Daymaker, where he'll be sharing highlights, using the platform to give back to the community by documenting his experiences and offering inspiration to other like-minded travelers.

Hope we made your day.
