Only 10 miles separated the lawyer Eva Buzo from achieving extraordinary success. She is the first woman who took on the challenge to swim from the Channel of Otranto to the shores of Vlora, from where she originated, but this journey was stopped in the middle.

As she described a distance of 28 hours by swimming, the 36-year-old lawyer interrupted this experience, due to her worsening health condition, but also to being burned by a candle. In a statement to the media, swimmer Eva Buzo said that there were a number of other factors for which she decided to withdraw from the race, although she admitted that the temptation to continue despite everything was too great, where she was only 10 miles away from her primary goal. .

"The idea started during the pandemic. It all started in the pandemic. I started swimming with Vlad, usually I travel a lot for work and I can't keep a training schedule. But in the pandemic, I got stuck in Australia and started swimming. He coaches some of the best marathon swimmers. And I wanted to find a swimming route that meant something to me. This was a route that had not been done before, according to the Marathon Federation.

I tried to give my best, but it was difficult. In this swim, it was difficult with the wind and you said to yourself: "start swimming". When I first started, I started slowly and at dinner I thought I would have a faster speed, but that didn't happen, a candle burned my arm and I didn't reach my goal. Side effects such as weather, dinner and fog prevented me from finishing the race. My grandfather was born in Albania, emigrated and we live in Australia. It is a big Albanian community, I wanted to bring the traditions we had from my grandfather for his sake through this experience", she said.

Eva Buzo's coach described her as a heroine, and for him, what the swimmer has done is unimaginable.

"She is a heroine, for me it worked. We find it difficult to walk for 28 hours without stopping, how about swimming?", he said.

Buzo left Otranto for Albania. In this experience, as special as it was dangerous, he was accompanied by two auxiliary boats and a 12.5 meter long boat.

According to the media in Italy, the swimmer needed 40 hours of non-stop swimming to reach her hometown, of which she described a full 28.
