He going to Europe. He was trying to find a quicker trade route to Asia from Europe and also prove that north and south America was on the other side of the world.

Once he got to the tip of south America he died from a battle so his crew went on without him. They went across the Pacific Ocean and only 2 ships survived to the Spice Islands. Then only 1 made it back to Europe.
