The crew of Poussé par le Vent continues their discovery of French Guiana, starting with the market and tasting delicious Vietnamese soups. Then it is time to go to Kourou, a city and district on the Atlantic coast of French Guiana, to spend the day in a carbet - a small wooden dwelling, paying or free of charge, installed near the rivers and typical of the country - to paddle and jump into the water...
French Guiana is also known for its convents and it is these vestiges of the past that Sarah and Aurélien will discover. The Salvation Islands - and in particular Île Saint-Joseph - are home to a prison and a prison. From 1852 to 1946, 1600 convicts were sent to the Salvation Islands, an archipelago made up of three islets of volcanic origin attached to French Guiana, located fourteen kilometres off Kourou. The convicts were silenced and forced to dub. That is to say, they had to spend twice their sentence in French Guiana and if it exceeded 8 years they had to stay for life at home. The Devil's Island - which is part of the archipelago - is the islet where Dreyfus was reclusively deported.
