PHILOSOPHY OF AN EXPLORER

Erling Kagge was the first man in history to reach all the Earth's poles by foot - the North, the South, and the summit of Everest. In sixteen meditative but practical lessons - from cultivating an optimistic outlook, to getting up at the right time, to learning to take pleasure in the small things and finding comfort in solitude - he reveals what survival in the most extreme conditions can teach us about how to lead a meaningful life.
