“A part of us feels like we’re abandoning her”: Clarisse and Tanguy, a Vendée Globe far from their daughter
The good humor of Léna, “Tata Tina”, is contagious. It is she – “Mathilda’s 3rd parent, 3rd landmark”, summarizes Tanguy, her big brother – who will watch over the little one. In the house rented until departure, not far from the Sables-d’Olonne embankments, we pay attention to details. The last hugs will be done far from the pontoon, too full of emotion on the morning of departure. Léna will take over. “Mathilda was still in Clarisse’s belly when Tanguy asked me if I wanted to keep her,” Léna remembers.
