Arabian Sands is Wilfred Thesiger’s stunning account of five years spent crossing the Arabian Peninsula by foot and on camels, with nomadic Bedouin tribesmen as guides. Travelling between 1945 and 1950, the British explorer treks through Yemen, the Empty Quarter, Oman, and parts of the then Trucial States, crossing and re-crossing around 250,000 miles of this most inhospitable terrain. He was the first European ever to set eyes on the dunes and wadis of these deserts.

Hamburg könnte so schön sein, wäre da nicht das schon fast sprichwörtliche Hamburger "Schmuddelwetter". Der Franzose Jacob Gallois preist die Hansestadt gar als "irdischen Paradies der Regenschirmhändler". Viele mehr oder weniger berühmte Autoren berichten über das "Venedig des Nordens" und seine Vorstadt St. Pauli, mal freundlich, wie Joseph von Eichendorff, der "mit staunendem Entzücken" den Hafen passiert, mal weniger freundlich, wie Garlieb Merkel, der Hamburg als "geweihten Tempel der schlaffen Langeweile" beschreibt.

"Pardon, ich bin Bahnkunde!" Wir lieben sie eigentlich, unsere Bahn. Doch leider liebt sie uns nicht. Schmerzhaft authentische und trotzdem heitere Bahngeschichten aus 25 Jahren - von jemandem, der verrückt genug war, jede Woche zwischen Köln und Berlin zu pendeln. Zugausfälle, Böschungsbrand, Personen im Gleis, defekte Klimaanlagen, Umleitungen - in den fünfundzwanzig Jahren, die Reinhard Rohn zwischen Köln und Berlin pendelte, hat er fast alles erlebt, was man sich an Bahnerlebnissen denken kann - und auch noch ein wenig mehr.

Whether in lake, lido, river or sea, we know the benefits of swimming outdoors and in nature—environmentally friendly and accessible, it can influence our happiness, our energy and our inner tranquillity. Winter Swimming takes this one step further, as contact with cold water all year round can also have a significant positive impact on our physical health, confidence and well-being. Danish scientist Susanna Søberg leads us step by step into the icy water and explains the 'cold-shock response', the massive endorphin rush as our body reacts and adapts.

Thirty miles of jaw-dropping magnificence: this remains one of the most dramatic and exciting stretches of coastline in Europe despite the ever-increasing numbers of tourists. John Steinbeck wrote of the Amalfi Coast, "It is a dream place that isn't quite real when you are there." The picturesque villages clinging to sheer mountainsides that drop into turquoise waters are certainly a dazzling sight that you can scarcely believe, and that you will never forget.

In Hamburg sagt man “Moin”, das hat nichts mit der Tageszeit zu tun, Moin ist viel mehr als ein “Hallo” oder “Guten Tag”, Moin verspricht hanseatische Wärme und die gibt es in Hamburg zuhauf. Die Hamburger sind bekannt für Herzlichkeit, Offenheit und ein bisschen Ironie. Was aber ist es im Einzelnen, das Hamburg so attraktiv macht? Ich lebe nun schon einige Jahre in der Hansestadt und bin mir sicher, dass es ein Zusammenspiel aus Toleranz und Herzlichkeit der Hamburger ist.
