From London to Istanbul by rowboat. With his 5,200-kilometer journey, Giacomo di Stefano wants to raise awareness of the destruction of river landscapes.
Di Stefano's trip will take half a year and will take him on the rivers and canals of 15 different countries. He'll be making the trip in a reproduction of an old Viking fishing boat. Large ships are a hazard, and the countless sets of locks demand much effort. Giacomo di Stefano will be documenting what he sees on his web page "Man on the river.com". He'll be showing human interventions in nature, but also the little idylls, like the Danube-Auen National Park. Di Stefano's aim is to see Europe's rivers and their valleys better protected.
