Marcel Theroux grew up in a household where adventurous travel was the norm. So perhaps it’s no surprise that he’s spent much of his own working life on the road, seeking out stories that other people have overlooked.

He relives three of his most memorable trips with travel journalist, Greg Dickinson – from a formative journey to India as a gangly teenager, through to a recent adventure in one of the world’s most secretive states.
