## Travels

Guido Guerrini is also a car traveler, the first person to go from Europe to China covering the whole route by a gas-fuelled car.
The project, called Torino-Pechino, la macchina della pace (Turin-Beijing, the peace machine), was organized in 2008: overall, Guerrini and Andrea Gnaldi Coleschi (born 27 October 1978 in Arezzo, Italy), covered 25,852 km (16,064 mi) using a 1999 Fiat Marea 1.6 16V from the seat of the 2006 Winter Olympics (in Turin) to the seat of the 2008 Summer Olympics (in Beijing) and returning to Italy. The trip started on 6 July 2008 and passed through 17 countries to finish on 21 September 2008, and used LPG for fuel for 95% of the journey. The project is described in the 2008 book Aregolavanti (Always Forward).
In winter 2011, together with Emanuele Calchetti, he traveled from Rome to Volgograd with a gas-fuelled Gonow pick-up, crossing Eastern Europe, Moldova, Transnistria, and Ukraine. This experience originated the travel book Via Stalingrado (Stalingrad Street, 2011).
