Ontdekkingsreiziger Ben Saunders wil dat je het huis uit komt! Niet omdat het altijd aangenaam is, maar omdat je daar het krachtvoer van het leven vindt, "het sap dat we uit onze uren en dagen kunnen zuigen". Saunders' volgende excursie is een poging om als eerste van de kust van Antarctica naar de Zuidpool te lopen, en weer terug.

In 2004, Ben Saunders became the youngest person ever to ski solo to the North Pole. In 2013, he’ll set out on another record-breaking expedition, this time to be the first to walk from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole, and back again. Full bio »
