Balade contée sur la Loire"Embarquements avec les Terre-Neuvas" à bord d'un bateau traditionnel avec Fer de Loire

Experience the call of the open sea aboard a traditional Loire boat: Alain Girault-Conti's original storytelling reading of the Carnet Viking takes you on a voyage between the Loire and the Atlantic.

Literary wake: Anita Conti invites herself on board

When the Loire meets the Atlantic: relive the Viking's 70 days at sea through the voice of the man who keeps alive the legacy of the first woman oceanographer.

The adopted son of writer-traveller and photographer Anita Conti, Laurent Girault-Conti is now committed to passing on her work to as many people as possible. It was in this spirit of sharing that he edited and published Le Carnet Viking, the long-unpublished account of a 70-day expedition by Anita Conti aboard a cod-boat in 1939.

Let yourself be carried away by this story, where the spray of the Far North mingles with the reflections of the Royal River.
