The boat is their home

Ghislain Bardout and Emmanuelle Périé-Bardout are explorers and divers. They are French and they have got a home in France. They are hardly ever at home because they travel all around the world on their boat. They are the leaders of a team called Under the Pole. There are more than one hundred people in this team – some people are scuba divers, some are scientists and some are sailors. Ghislain and Emmanuelle want to explore the sea. They usually travel to cold seas and icy lands in parts of the world like Greenland and Antarctica, but sometimes they go to warm places like Hawaii and Tahiti.

The Bardouts make films, take photos and write books about their adventures. Sometimes they go diving under the sea ice and swim underwater, and sometimes they travel across the land. When they return to France, they often visit schools. They like telling students about their work.

Ghislain and Emmanuelle are also parents and their children always travel with them. They have got two sons – Robin, who is seven, and Thomas, who is three. ‘The boat is their home,’ says their mum, Emmanuelle. ‘Our children are happy to be where we are.’ Of course, the boys are very good at swimming and they enjoy jumping and diving off the boat. There is also one more very important member of their team – their dog Kayak. Kayak has a special job – he barks when he sees a polar bear!
