Kissing Kibo: Trekking to the Summit of Mount Kilimanjaro
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Marshall, Sheree, PUBLISHER: iUniverse.com, As a single, female, African American, over-forty, divorcee, ong>theong> author had an epiphany: She had better start living her life. Having lost both parents early in life, she reasoned that she had many more years behind her than left in front of her. That meant that she would embark on doing all of ong>theong> things she'd ever dreamt of doing. Having never so much as camped out for longer than a day, she decided to take a trip far from ong>theong> concrete confines of her urban life, and embark on a solo sojourn with Moong>theong>r Nature to ong>theong> top of Mount Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania, East Africa. She had no earthly idea what to expect; not even a clue of wheong>theong>r she could survive at an altitude of feet, much less ong>theong> height of Mount Kilimanjaro at feet. Even so, she made ong>theong> journey across ong>theong> Atlantic to ong>theong> top of ong>theong> highest free-standing mountain in ong>theong> world. Join ong>theong> author on this journey as you read her first-person account, and her insight into how you, too, can make a successful trek to ong>theong> top of Mount Kilimanjaro.
