He is "at home" on 3 continents, having been born in Madagascar and lived many years in Africa.

He studied in the USA, and has his home in Switzerland.

Stories of his driving experiences to the ends of the Earth, the vehicle he has chosen, the people he has met, and above all his personal motivation, make fascinating listening!

In this episode we discuss:

-A sense of the scale of his planned voyage so that I can understand the true dimensions of what he has set out to do. In which direction did he start to drive? How did he decide? And how long it will take him?

-Why he is doing it? What pushes him to undertake such a massive journey, which takes him away from his family for so long.

-We talk about his experiences of humankind and, in particular, what his global, circumnavigational driving experience has taught him.

-Some of the highs and lows/most-memorable and most unpleasant experiences of his journey.
