About the Book

See German translation further down. Many people think when they are in their fifties, they are too old to undertake risky adventures. The author does not think so. She had long dreamed of visiting Srinagar in the Indian Himalayas and when she turned fifty she decided she would go there. She decided to explore the Himalayas even further and join a trekking group. She searched the brochures until she found a suitable group and followed their advice to train for this big adventure. She went for weekly difficult bush walking expeditions and did regular yoga exercises. About a year later she began the great adventure. It was difficult, it was dangerous but very rewarding. She trekked over landslides, escaped avalanches and met people from different cultures. This book is an encouragement for all who want to fulfil their dreams. Viele Menschen denken, wenn sie in die Fünfziger kommen, sie seien schon zu alt für gefährliche Abenteuer. Die Autorin ist da anderer Ansicht. Sie hatte schon lange davon geträumt einmal nach Srinagar in Indien zu reisen. Als sie Fünzig wurde, beschloß sie, die Himalayas für sich zu entdecken. Sie durchsuchte mehrere Reisebroschüren für eine passende Reisegruppe und als sie fand, was sie suchte, begann sie sich auf das Abenteuer vorzubereiten. Sie machte an den Wochenenden anstrengende Wanderungen in einem nahegelegenen Berggebiet und begann auch Yoga Übungen für die Atmung in großer Höhenlage. Ein Jahr später begann das Abenteuer. Es war schwierig, gefährlich, doch unglaublich erfüllend. Sie wanderte über Erdrutsche, entwischte Lawinen und traf Menschen von verschiedenen Kulturen. Dieses Buch ist eine Ermutigung für alle, die Abenteurlust in ihren Herzen haben.
