In a world full of speed and pressure to perform, more and more people are breaking under their life situations. Depression and burnout are the consequences. How can I get out of this? Petra Albenberger dared to simply pack her bags, take a break, and hike from her home in Wals over the Alps and the Grossglockner, through Austria, Slovenia, and Italy to the Mediterranean. Countless experiences with people and animals helped her find herself again. The book encourages readers to take the first step, to dare to do something, and to gain a lot in the process.
