If you were to travel due east along the 47th parallel to western France, near the sea–you’d find the home of Paskal Chelet Roux.
Paskal is currently visiting Calumet as part of a 13 country tour around the world, visiting every nation the latitude line passes through.
The United States is country number ten on the list.., and she chose the Keweenaw Peninsula for her destination.
A former journalist Paskal plans to create a web-based multi-media documentary of her journey.
But her real goal is to find another woman in each country who was born on the exact same day–January 25th, 1963.
Paskal still has not found her match from the Keweenaw and she leaves on Friday.
If you would like to follow her adventure on Facebook.
You can hear more of her story on an upcoming episode of Copper Country Today.
