LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

South Africa: Devil's Peak: A bird's eye view of a section of Cape Town.

'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.

63.12 Night and Day, Rain and Sunshine—a glimpse of a 3-day mini-trek...a pursuit one seeks.

An extremely brief introduction to a spectacular 3-days on our own trek. Once again, we feel blessed for the privileges we receive. 

Lord Shiva, literally, takes a shower. (Earlier blogs show Lord Shiva basking in sunshine. Scrolling back will illustrate.)
Early morning view of one of the Annapurna Peaks...the heights are truly overwhelming.

Afternoon view of Phewa Lake and extension toward the dam, on a hike to-and-from lake level back to our accommodation, Mountain View Cafe. The view from the lodging is beyond belief.
Early evening overlooking Phewa Lake from an outstanding position.

Night view. City lights with lake unlit in front.
Waited 5 weeks for this scene: A couple of Annapurna Peaks, Machhapuchhare (Fishtail) and Phewa Lake below. On a front mountain stands Sarangkot Tower (right), a hike we have completed twice this trip.
Cheers, 

Jenni and Jeffrey


"Hey, kid, why don't you come up and see me sometime?" Mae goat out west suggested. (The come hither look, the only offer I'm likely to ever receive). Furthermore, this gang did not move to allow us to pass so we stepped between them. Wasn't a comfortable few moments amongst our horny friends.
