3 people driving from Cochin to London !!

Malayalam film director Lal Jose, automobile journalist Baiju N Nair and former General Manager of Dubai Ports Suresh Joseph, today embarked on a 75-day road trip to London from Kochi. The trip was flagged-off by Malayalam film actors Anoop Menon and Namitha Pramod.

The three member team would be covering 24,000 kilometers in 75 days. They would be travelling through 27 countries which are in two different continents. Their purpose of undertaking the journey was to carry messages of world peace with the slogan ‘Good will knows no boundaries’.

The Indian stretch includes Bangalore, Hyderabad, Nagpur, Jabalpur and Gorakhpur. They will enter Nepal and then cross over to Tibet, where they will visit the base camp of Mount Everest and Lhasa, from where the journey will take them to Europe through China, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Russia.

In Europe they will drive through Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Czech Republic, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Ireland and reach London.
