“This trip, we feel, will bring us much closer to each other. Our relationship will grow stronger during our trip,” he says to the The Star.

Another goal is do something for a lifetime, and something that no one else has done before. From home Jim Petersson has done some research and found out about others that have made long skating journeys.

One had skate through Japan and another from China to Europe and then the USA. And then they decided that they wanted to go skating in Southeast Asia reports The Star.
