Andreas Vesalius was born in Brussels on December 31, 1514 and died in Zakynthos on October 15, 1564. He was Flemish. He went to school in Brussels, then later Paris and then got his Doctorate in Venice. He later lectured in Bologna and Pisa. He went to work for the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V and then Phillip II. He later made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. On his way back to Venice, his ship ran into a storm and was shipwrecked at Zakynthos in the Ionian Sea. I guess you could say he lived at a lot of places.

"physician to Holy Roman emporer Charles V. After Charles V resigned his son, Philip II, appointed Vesalius to his staff of physicians in 1559. After several years at the imperial court in Madrid, Vesalius made a voyage to the Holy Land. On the voyage home in 1564, he died in a shipwreck off of the island of Zacynthus."
