Henrique Santos

From newspaper seller in Goiânia to international manager, DJ and communicator in Europe: my life is driven by movement, logistics and audiovisual.

The farther I go, the more connected I feel to what I have, and the closer. The farther I go, the more alone I feel. The more alone I feel, the stronger, the more special, the more capable of feats that are not for everyone.
I cross provinces, regions, days, nights, rain, fog, wind, snow, ice, dust, sun, heat, sweat. The pride of doing and being something different grows, and with it the sense of belonging to a parallel world that moves most intensely when the rest are resting…

Timeline

How it was built

Business
The printing plant of O Popular
I started out selling newspapers in Goiânia and went on to work directly in the printing house of the newspaper O Popular, at Grupo Jaime Câmara. It was the start of a life driven by movement, logistics and audiovisual work.
Business
Moving to Florence
In 2003 I moved to Firenze, Italy. I learned the local language, completed the Liceo Linguistico and worked in the wine sector, in the Impruneta region.
Road
The first heavy trucks
It was in Tuscany that I took the wheel of my first heavy articulated trucks, starting a solid career on European roads.
Media
Clandestino Channel is born
That experience on the road gave rise, in 2010, to Clandestino Channel, a channel that became a reference by documenting the daily life of European road transport. Today it has over 200 thousand subscribers and 46 million views.
Business
Moving to England
In 2014 I moved to England, where I learned English and founded Marygaia Logistics Ltd.
Business
International management
Today I am CEO of SHS Global Freight, in Portugal, and co-founder of an audiovisual production company dedicated to films and advertising campaigns. I study International Business Management at Anglia Ruskin University, in London, and speak Portuguese, Italian and English, all at C2 level of the Common European Framework of Reference.
Media
Modo Avião
I am a partner in the Modo Avião channel and I created and present the program on Brazilian open TV, alongside Luciana, with whom I also produce and run corporate events and DJ performances. There are 20 episodes already shot and edited, across three seasons, and the fourth is being filmed.
Music
DJ on luxury cruises
As a DJ, I bring my musicality to the high-end sector, performing on luxury ships such as the Atlas Voyager. I recently went back to my original passion for event production, investing again in high-performance sound equipment. In extreme sports, on motorbikes and in the mountains I find my main source of energy.
