La Balade de Jade

A 5-year journey to Antarctica aboard Jade, our red sailboat: that's our project. An adventure, but one that takes its time, and not in a straight line. We don't like straight lines. Experience the adventure with us on this channel, where we share the highlights of our voyage about once a month. For the journey, visit our blog for our detailed logbook and the ongoing story of the memorable people…
