Meer oor hierdie e-boek

As a child, I was captivated by Daniel Defoe's timeless tale of Robinson Crusoe. I often wondered if I could survive being stranded on a deserted island, relying on my wits and resourcefulness to stay alive. The idea of replicating Crusoe's experience remained alluring even as I grew older. And one day, I finally had the chance to put myself to the test.

In this book, I'm eager to share with you one of the most thrilling adventures of my life, when my friend and I, as naive teenagers, set out to see if we could survive in the mountains without the comforts of a tent, sleeping bags, food, or even matches. We made it through not because we were clever, but because we were fortunate.

Please, do not repeat the similar Hungry hike yourself. Find a better adventure.

Vitaly Nishanov

I was born in 1946 in Kyrgyzstan to medical doctor parents who named me Vitaly in hopes of ensuring my health, though reality had other plans. My dream of becoming a macho led me to meet friends who introduced me to mountain hiking, opening up a world of adventures that ultimately improved my health.

My passion for adventure inspired me to pursue a unique specialization at university: math biology. For more than 20 years, I worked as a scientist before being invited to teach at a university, eventually becoming a professor.

In 2004, I moved to the USA, embarking on a new adventure as a Business School professor at the University of Washington.

During my lectures, I shared many of my stories with students. Encouraged by their reactions, I began writing down my funny advantures. I have since published three books, and this is one of them.
