The Project

A year of savings, mad preparations, doubts, disappointments, discussions, but also expectations, dreams and many hours sitting in front of maps, websites or reading guides...

A very intense crazy year to realise a very abstract desire: to travel around the world!

A dream come true: 6 months of honeymoon: Australasia, Asia and the Indian subcontinent.

The DESIRE "to go" and meet people, discover new ways of life, new civilisations, witness other types of relationships, explore different landscapes, visit fascinating, puzzling or frightening cities, experience all sorts of moods and atmospheres.

The DESIRE "to escape the routine", to shake up the lethargy of our daily lives, to have a break and escape the urban alienation.

The DESIRE to "spend some time together", to be together everyday for 6 months and live an adventure.

The DESIRE to "rediscover ourselves", as individuals and as a couple. This journey will be a school in itself. Ask, do not run, confront oneself with doubts, fears and desires. Be face to face, rekindle the flame and walk on the same road.

Also the DESIRE to "be free", to grow inside and to open new horizons. Travelling gives a sense of freedom, a feeling that everything is possible...

So many dreams but also a simple fact: If we don’t do it now, we will never do it! So here we go!

"Travelling the world in every possible ways, it is not only discovering others, it is primarily exploring oneself, the excitement of being and reacting. "Xavier Maniguet
