LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

Eastern Cape, South Africa: Storms River region.

'LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT: WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HIKE-ABOUT?'

Hike-about is an adventure that commenced June 2010. After storing our household movables, ridding ourselves of a house but retaining our 'home' together, we set off with the purpose of hiking in different parts of the world, not forgetting the home country, the USA.

Our primary focus is hiking to mountain peaks but any challenging hike will do just fine. Extended stays enable us to enjoy and experience living in various places amongst differing cultures. Hike-about has evolved into a way of life. It's also a process of discovery, both the world and ourselves.

We work and live 'on the road' but return to the city in which our grandchildren reside, every couple of months. This provides us the wonderful opportunity to be with them as well as a child or two, even three and of course, friends.

By the end of 2023, the blog contained over 1,560 hikes (less than that actually undertaken), each a set of pictures with stories and anecdotes from the trails. An index to the right allows the viewer to identify earlier experiences.

Finally, we are often asked about the journey's end.
O
ur reply, as accurate as we can state, is: "When we are either forced to cease through health issues or the enjoyment level no longer reaches our aspirations, we will hang up the boots."

"A Life Experience As No Other: Dare to Seize the Day Together", published by Fulton Books, depicts our life on the road and mountains until the beginning of 2017. It has developed 'exponentially' since then.

In The Beginning.....

This blog has been set up to document our World Hike-About or WHab as we are calling it. Jeff and I are preparing to pack up our home at the end of May 2010, putting all our worldly possessions in storage and embarking on an open-ended hiking trip all over the US and parts of the world. We intend to keep going as long as we are having fun and things are running in our favor. We feel very blessed to be able to do this, to have the freedom of just moving around from place to place, exploring this beautiful world that Hashem has given us.

i have just enjoyed your Chapman's peak hiking tour. As an ex Capetonian and Table Mountain hiker/climber it was a wonderful gust of nostalgia. the only thing you left out was the special perfume on one's hands when
climbing. I never did pinpoint which of the bushes one grabbed as extra help gave that sweet fresh smell. And what about the special taste of mountain water ? and what about the wonder of discovering that there is a whole different country on the top.
