Mike Horn's "Pole2Pole" expedition: Mercedes-Benz Brand Ambassador has started his round-the-world trip in Monaco

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Adventurer and extreme athlete #mikehorn started his round-the-world "Pole2Pole" expedition in Monaco on 8 May 2016. The #mercedesbenz Brand Ambassador set sail for Namibia in his boat PANGAEA. The challenge faced by Horn is to circumnavigate the world northwards from Pole to Pole by alternating between boat, skis, kayak and the #mercedesbenz G-Class. The expedition will take him from Europe to Africa and then on to the Antarctic, Oceania, Asia, the Arctic, North America and finally back to Europe. The aim is to gain an insight into culture and nature in rarely explored regions. During his adventurous trip, the South African-born explorer will be reporting on his experiences with people in different regions of the world on his websitewww.mikehorn.com and at Pole2Pole. The expedition is due to end back in Monaco in 2018.
"I consider everything I do a challenge," said #mikehorn, who is famous for his extreme adventures. "I'm glad that the expedition is finally beginning and that many new impressions and experiences lie ahead." Following weeks of intensive preparations and equipment tests in wintry Canada, #mikehorn and his team are now sailing to Namibia. The next stage involves driving the G-Class through the world's oldest desert, the Namib desert, on the Namibian coast. The route then passes through the Okavango delta in Botswana, the world's largest inland delta, and on to Cape Town in South Africa, where #mikehorn was born.Mike Horn is one of the world's most recognised pioneers of modern expedition history. He has been pushing the limits of human abilities with a number of spectacular expeditions for 25 years. #mercedesbenz has assisted #mikehorn on his expeditions for many years, including last year's "Driven to Explore" expedition on which both partners raised awareness of environmental changes in even the most remote regions of the world. #mercedesbenz sponsored the PANGAEA expedition between 2008 and 2012. With the guiding theme "Explore. Learn. Act." Horn initiated ecological and social projects with young people in different places around the world.
