Updated | By Diane Macpherson
The Durban guys from the 'Hitched Series' are not only in Los Angeles, they actually made it to the Ellen DeGeneres Show, but Ellen still doesn't know why they've hitched all the way from Durban to the US...
Luke MacDonald and Jordan Deall - cousins from Durban, along with cameraman Donovan Orr, have been trying to get to LA since March this year.

It may sound like a long time to get to a destination, but they've been hitching and relying on the kindness of strangers all over the world to help them on their journey.
Their goal all along has been to hang out with Ellen DeGeneres on her couch at The Ellen Show. They want to tell her about their wild adventures in the Congo a few years ago.
Listen to their latest #HeyEllen podcast update with Jane Linley-Thomas - who has been tracking them each week throughout their journey.
They've appealed to East Coasters to help them by tagging Ellen in their social media posts.
