When Zhang Xinyu and Liang Hong started talking about getting married, they did what any rich, brave and crazy near-newlyweds would.
The Beijing-based couple left lucrative jobs to travel the world, with plans to tie the knot in Antarctica once they had finished a journey through such locales as Somalia, Chernobyl and a volcano in Vanuatu.
