@beyondborders_maps: 438 Days Lost at Sea: The Incredible Survival of José Alvarenga #map #maps #geography #beyondborders Lost at sea for 438 days, José Salvador Alvarenga set off from Mexico in 2012 but was caught in a five-day storm, leaving him adrift. Surviving on raw fish, birds, and rainwater, his companion Ezequiel Córdoba fell ill and died after four months. Alvarenga drifted 10,800 km, reaching the Marshall Islands on January 30, 2014, before swimming to shore and being rescued. Later, Córdoba’s family sued him for $1,000,000, alleging cannibalism.
