Experience Christine Thürmer's new show with her new adventures: secure the best seats now!
The world at your feet: Christine Thürmer, the most hiked woman in the world, has discovered after more than 65,000 kilometers on five continents: People hike everywhere, but everywhere differently. In her new show, she compares outdoor cultures from Chile to Taiwan with funny and thought-provoking anecdotes from 40 countries and shows what we can also learn from them.
On her last trails in Asia, she survived earthquakes, typhoons and an overdose of kimchi, then made a pilgrimage through the European cultural landscape to recuperate and has fought her way through the wildernesses of America and the Australian outback several times. In the process, the globetrotter learned that not only climate and terrain influence the hiking experience, but also eating habits, beauty ideals and labor laws.
Where can you hike around a damaged nuclear power plant? Which outdoor snack is only available as dog food in this country? And why do some hikers look like bank robbers? The four-time bestselling author surprises viewers with unusual tour suggestions and practical tips and answers their questions live. Above all, she lovingly gives shits and couch potatoes a psychological kick up the backside, because she thinks we should all dare to go on more adventures: We should all dare to be much more adventurous! So that there are no more excuses, she works out step by step with her audience how you (and especially women) can lose your fear of solo trips and spend the night alone in the forest. No matter whether you are looking for God, yourself or your ideal weight: This courage-making show proves that hiking will always make you happy.
