Answer:

He sailed west from Bristol.

Step-by-step explanation:

John Cabot - Giovanni Caboto in Italian - was a Venetian explorer and navigator. He traveled west from Bristol to Canada.

He as on the boat “Matthew” that weighted 50 tons with 18 men on board. He believed that the West route would be a faster way to Asia than taking the Nothern Europe route. Cabot landed on the North American coast in June 24th of 1497.
