Fast hätte ich es vergessen: Ray Jardines "Trail Life" kam heute an. DIE englischsprachige Bibel für ultraleichte Wanderer. Ray ist seit den 80ern recht leicht unterwegs - Antarktis, amerikanische Weitwanderwege oder rudernd übers Meer, über 25.000 Meilen Erfahrung "on the road" stecken in dem Buch. Zurzeit habe ich leider recht wenig Zeit, aber zum Querlesen reichts wohl. Ein Review wird folgen.
