I think the journey of life is something each person has to map out for themselves. For some people, climbing a mountain may take them past a personal hurdle or help them to realise a challenge that in the end leads them towards becoming a better person. Perhaps some people see a vacation as a two week stint on a beach, while someone else wants to use their free time to prepare for, and then tackle, a climb up a mountain. Motivation is the key and life is for living. Congratulations to Marta and her Alpinist friends for making the journey a little more challenging, and thus a little more rewarding. There’s nowhere else but up!

Hi Hans!

Though it should undoubtedly be a day to remember oppressed women throughout the world, the International Women’s Day is in the first place a day in which the world celebrates the past, present and future achievements of women.

Less than 100 years ago, it was still impossible for women to have a career in the steel industry, or to travel to the other side of the world to fulfill their dreams. We believe that telling stories such as Marta’s is a way to honour our female colleagues, who are helping change traditional mindsets.

It is nice if you have the time to do this. However I do not think the 8 of March is ment for this. I am an active member of Amnesty International and I think this day is more for all the women in the worl that ar suppressed in any way.
