Christine Thürmer – Wander Woman

In the organizer's words:

The most hiked woman in the world!

Since 2004,ChristineThürmerhas covered around 60,000 kilometers on foot, 38,000 kilometers by bike and 7,000 kilometers by boat. The world's most hiked woman has crossed the USA and Europe three times each. The 57-year-old talks about this in her show "Wander Woman", a humorous, good-humored show without any campfire romance or outdoor clichés.

When Christine Thürmer was born in 1967, there was nothing to suggest that she would one day become the most hiked woman in the world. Although she was top of her class at school, she was an absolute loser at sport. As a result, she first embarks on a stellar career as a manager before realizing after an unexpected layoff and the death of a friend that time - and not money - is the most important resource in life. Completely untrained, she hikes 4,277 kilometers from Mexico to Canada on the Pacific Crest Trail - despite having flat feet, knock-knees and being overweight! And that's just the beginning ...

Why does Christine Thürmer prefer to prepare for her tours on the computer rather than in the gym? Why doesn't she wear underpants when she's out and about, but has a bin liner with her? And what is it about this life that makes her so damn happy? When viewers ask her questions live, she doesn't shy away from any answers and even presents her weirdest hiking outfit. With lots of funny, exciting and thought-provoking anecdotes, the three-time bestselling author describes her journey from couch potato to long-distance hiker and her everyday outdoor life as a solo female traveler. There are also amazing practical tips, tour ideas from Brandenburg to Patagonia and a demonstration of her minimalist equipment.

From "Bild der Frau" to "Emma", from "Bergwelten" to "The Economist" and from "Nordbayerische Nachrichten" to "Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung" - she has already been reported on across the German press landscape. From Norddeutscher Rundfunk to Bayerischer Rundfunk, she has been interviewed on numerous radio programs and has been a guest on several TV talk shows and podcasts.
