Experience the new stage show by the most hiked woman in the world:
When Christine Thürmer was born in 1967, there was nothing to suggest that she would one day become the most hiked woman in the world. Although she was top of her class at school, she was a complete loser at sport. As a result, she first embarks on a stellar career as a manager before realizing after an unexpected layoff and the death of a friend that time - and not money - is the most important resource in life.
Completely untrained, she hikes 4,277 kilometers from Mexico to Canada on the Pacific Crest Trail - despite having flat feet, knock-knees and being overweight! And that's just the beginning: since then, she has covered over 60,000 kilometers on foot and crossed the USA and Europe three times each. With many funny, exciting and thought-provoking anecdotes, the four-time bestselling author describes her journey from couch potato to long-distance hiker and her everyday outdoor life as a solo female traveler. There are also amazing practical tips, tour ideas from Brandenburg to Japan and a demonstration of her minimalist equipment.
A good-humored show without campfire romance and outdoor clichés for all those who want to set off on their own or are simply interested in life on the move.
