Andrew Stevenson wandert zum Everest Base Camp und trägt Haarsträhnen seines verstorbenen Bruders bei sich. Während der Tour reflektiert er über seine Trauer, das Leben der Sherpas, die Mitreisenden und die beeindruckende Berglandschaft. Eine bewegende und inspirierende Reiseerzählung.

Neuseeland – bekannt für seine Weite und seine abwechslungsreiche Natur: traumhafte Sandstrände, verschneite Gebirgszüge, dichtes Buschland und einsame Ebenen. Entlang berühmter Wege wie dem Milford Track wandert Andrew Stevenson vier Monate lang von Süd nach Nord über beide neuseeländischen Inseln. Ab der ersten Minute als Fremder entlarvt, lernt er in Pubs und unterwegs Neuseeländer und ihre Eigenarten kennen: die kleinen Vorurteile untereinander, die Witze zwischen 'Aussies' und 'Kiwis'. Er begegnet den Problemen zwischen den weißen Einheimischen und den Maori, sieht aber auch die Annäherungen. Am Schluss seiner Reise kann er sich sogar vorstellen zu bleiben – auf der anderen Seite der Welt. Bei Frederking & Thaler erschien auch Stevensons 'Rund um den Annapurna'.
