A Mother-Daughter Journey: Séverine and Marion's Trek in Morocco
From October 21 to 26, 2026, Séverine and her daughter Marion Poulain will embark on a remarkable expedition known as the Trek Rose Trip Morocco. This event is not only a physical challenge but also a heartfelt mission that they have been preparing for over the past year. Their aim is to raise awareness and support for causes deeply intertwined with their family's history, specifically perinatal grief and cancer awareness.
At the age of 52, Séverine, a resident of Hennebont, and her 24-year-old daughter Marion, from Lochrist, are among the 200 teams participating in this all-female orientation raid. For three consecutive days, they will traverse the stunning dunes of Merzouga, covering a distance of 10 to 15 kilometers daily, armed with only a map and compass. Both are athletes in their own right; Séverine boasts a history as a Breton champion in track cycling, while Marion has made her mark in equestrian sports by winning the Morbihan championship in jumping. Their shared passion for sports and commitment to supporting important causes are the driving forces behind their participation in this trek.
This trek represents not only a physical challenge but also an opportunity for personal growth and community support. By choosing to engage in such a meaningful event, Séverine and Marion are setting an inspiring example of resilience and advocacy in the face of adversity. Their journey is a testament to the power of familial bonds and the impact of collective efforts in addressing critical social issues.
