The Long Journey
Arduous journeys on the migrant trail through Hungary, a way to enlightenment at a Thai monastery, France's decrepit plumbing and the slow, quirky Amtrak train network in the US
Arduous travels - with hope, faith, and some reward - around the world. Pascale Harter introduces dispatches from four correspondents pursuing their aims despite the obstacles: Matthew Price walks alongside the families trudging the migrant trail through Hungary to Austria and Germany; Rajan Dattar struggles to stay on the way to enlightenment at a Thai monastery; Hugh Schofield wrestles with the decay of France's decrepit plumbing and Christine Finn finds unexpected delights and consolations on the slow, quirky Amtrak train network in the USA.
