This ultimate three-year honeymoon deserves another mention. Alexandre and Sonia Poussin asked for and received lodging along their entire route, staying with over a thousand African families from a stunning cross-section of the continent’s people. The couple walked the entire way with the guiding philosophy of, “Let adventure be.”

“Reporting about the world in a deeper and slower way is their way of practicing journalism. They raise their two children just outside Paris, surrounded by fields, forests and horses, and are preparing their next journey.”
