Savan is traveling across the Atlantic Ocean in a large orange barrel. The barrel is 3 meters long and 2.1 meters wide, with a 6 square meter living space that includes a kitchen and a bunk. Savan uses satellite technology to gather ocean data and has brought wine and foie gras for the journey. He set off from the Canary Islands, aiming to reach the Caribbean using only ocean currents and winds.
