Miffa has visited multiple countries, but unlike an acquaintance of hers, whose adoptive mother works at a research base in Antarctica, her chances of being the first to make it to all five.continents were limited

His adoptive mother's venture capital investment company has covered a large part of the costs of the expedition.

Both Miffa's immediate family and many of his friends collaborate, participating in the expedition on the ground or from the base in Barcelona and Zurich.
