Reisverhaal Adventures in Morocco | Alice Morrison
TV presenter, writer and adventurer Alice Morrison gives her own unique and personal insight into Morocco, the place she's made her home. When Alice Morrison headed out to Morocco, it was to take on one of the most daunting challenges: to run in the famous Marathon des Sables. Little did she expect to end up living there. But once she settled in a flat in Marrakech, she was won over by the people, the spectacular scenery and the ancient alleyways of the souks. Soon she was hiking over the Atlas mountains, joining nomads to sample their timeless way of life as they crossed the Sahara desert, and finding peace in a tranquil oasis. Despite more than 10 million tourists coming to Morocco each year, there are remarkably few books about its people, their customs and the extraordinary range of places to visit, from bustling markets to vast, empty deserts. Alice makes sure she samples it all, and as she does she provides a stunning portrait of a beautiful country. As a lone woman, she often …

Reisverhaal Walking with Nomads | Alice Morrison
Reisverhaal Walking with Nomads | Alice Morrison
'Transports the reader to another world' Sunday Express Adventurer and TV presenter Alice Morrison takes the reader on three remarkable and inspirational journeys across Morocco, from the Sahara to the Atlas mountains, to reveal the growing challenges faced by our planet. Accompanied only by three Amazigh Muslim men and their camels, Scottish explorer Alice Morrison set off to find a hidden world. During her journey along the Draa river, she encountered dinosaur footprints and discovereda lost city, as well as what looked like a map of an ancient spaceship, all the while trying to avoid landmines, quicksand and the deadly horned viper. Few places better illustrate the reality of climate change and the encroachment of the desert than a dried-out riverbed, but this also means a constant search for the next source of water. Meeting other nomads as they travel, Alice also gets to hear a side of their lives few ever access, as the women would never be allowed to speak to men from outside…

Reisverhaal Miss-Adventures | Amy Baker
Reisverhaal Miss-Adventures | Amy Baker
Reisverhaal van Amy Baker die besluit om haar baan op te zeggen en te gaan backpacken in Zuid-Amerika. It seems everyone has an opinion on how you should live, especially when you're a woman. It's hard to know the mentors from the meddlers, and strike a balance between living your life wisely and living someone else's for them. After announcing her plans to backpack round South America, journalist and blogger Amy spends the next three months fending off well-meaning but often absurd advice, all of which she blithely ignores... right up until she runs into trouble. Each time things go wrong Amy resolves to avoid making the same mistakes in future. Weighing up the advice of everyone from friends and family to Carol on reception, against that of known Clever People such as Eleanor Roosevelt and Mother Teresa, she starts to find her way. Part memoir and part inspirational traveller's tale, Miss-adventures is a funny and frank account of a young woman exercising her independence.

Reisverhaal Alone in Antarctica | Felicity Aston
Reisverhaal Alone in Antarctica | Felicity Aston
What would it feel like to be out there alone in that empty vastness? Just before midnight on 24 November 2011, Felicity is left completely alone on the coast of Antarctica. The isolation is instant and devastating. Only three people in the world have crossed Antarctica alone. The first two were men and both Norwegian. At the age of 34, British woman Felicity Aston became the third. Unlike her predecessors, she didn't use kites or parasails to assist her. Within days, frozen into her facemask and reflecting on what had drawn her to such a place, she was battling desperate weather as she towed her heavy sledges. Every morning she wakes believing she cannot face another day as the expedition becomes a race against time to reach the coast before the last flight out. This gripping and inspirational account of personal endurance shows what you can achieve when you grit your teeth and decide just to get through today in one piece.

Please heed Kannazuki Noboru's illustration of a kind-hearted saint.YOU CAME TO GET OLIVIA-SAMA'S HOLY WATER, TOO? We've run out of today's portion, so please come back tomorrow morning.My wife and I were bedridden, but as soon as we started drinking Olivia-sama's holy water, we were healed! I hope you recover from your illness too!But.. they never show anyone how the holy water is made. The saint must be praying all night for us. She's like a goddess, always smiling without showing any signs of trouble!An unimaginable and secret late-night ritual is held far from the public.While I believe this act should be stopped as soon as possible,Expectations and pleas for help should not be ignored or betrayed.She tells herself that this is a justified ritual to save the people and that there is no evil intention.Yet she knowingly turns her eyes away from the fact that she finds joy and delight every night....A figure contrary to the desire to be modest.Kannazuki Noboru drew a holy and heartfel…

Productomschrijving

TV presenter, writer and adventurer Alice Morrison gives her own unique and personal insight into Morocco, the place she's made her home. When Alice Morrison headed out to Morocco, it was to take on one of the most daunting challenges: to run in the famous Marathon des Sables. Little did she expect to end up living there. But once she settled in a flat in Marrakech, she was won over by the people, the spectacular scenery and the ancient alleyways of the souks. Soon she was hiking over the Atlas mountains, joining nomads to sample their timeless way of life as they crossed the Sahara desert, and finding peace in a tranquil oasis. Despite more than 10 million tourists coming to Morocco each year, there are remarkably few books about its people, their customs and the extraordinary range of places to visit, from bustling markets to vast, empty deserts. Alice makes sure she samples it all, and as she does she provides a stunning portrait of a beautiful country. As a lone woman, she often attracts plenty of curiosity, but her willingness to participate - whether thigh deep in pigeon droppings in a tannery or helping out herding goats - ensures that she is welcomed everywhere by a people who are among the most hospitable on the planet. Alice came to fame with her BBC2 series Morocco to Timbuktu, and now she joins the ranks of great travel writers who can bring a country vividly to life and instantly transport the reader to a sunnier place. If you're thinking of going to Morocco, or you want to recall your time there, Adventures in Morocco is the ideal book.
