We are a couple of Turkish (Cansu) and French (Henri) who met in Italy during our studies. By traveling in Italy together, we discovered our taste for travel.

After working some years in Paris both as architects, we decided to cross Asia by terrestrial means (foot, bus, train). We will start from the Lycian way in Turkey and hope to make it until Vietnam by April 2021!

We aim to walk as much as possible, to have time to see the world and meet the people and come back to the essential. This project is for us the occasion to challenge our lifestyle and learn how to live simply. We also want to explore the architecture and the art of living in each country.
