Let’s meet two great explorers: Osa and Martin Johnson.

Osa was born in Chanute, Kansas, and Martin met her during a trip in Kansas. She accepted to marry him in 1910 and they travelled around the world from 1917 to 1937. In 1917, they were captured by a tribe. British soldiers helped them escape. The couple worked together in very dangerous situations. One day, they were attacked by a rhinoceros! Martin was filming, and Osa had a gun. She took it, shot the animal and saved her husband. Osa and Martin Johnson left us many films, images and stories. If you ask me, I think that being an explorer is an amazing job! But maybe it’s not for you…
