Nearly Dying in the Atlantic Ocean| Traveller Thor Pedersen | S6:E4 P1

Thor Pedersen, the only man traveling the world (yes to every country), without flying, talks to Mina Amso in part two about his stopover in New Zealand, Lebanon and Iraq. He’s been tossed around by violent storms on board ships, and how he nearly died in Africa. He’s been beating the odds to complete his project, Once Upon A Saga, but is he close enough? Note: Thor left Auckland before the airing of this episode. The long journey has earned Pedersen media coverage in more than 100 countries so far. He's been on VICE, BBC, Lonely Planet, National Geographic, Forbes, Al Jazeera, The Guardian, News.com.au, The National and ABC. We talk about: - If he misses flying at all. - How long he spend in a typical country. - What was it like visiting the Middle East like Iraq, Lebanon and Syria. - How he had a near death experience. - What he hopes to do when the dust settles and he returns home.
