Northbound: Four seasons of solitude on Te Araroa
Alone in the wilderness
Northbound: Four Seasons of Solitude on Te Araroa is an inspiring memoir by award-winning journalist Naomi Arnold. She spends nearly nine months walking the length of New Zealand on Te Araroa, fulfilling a 20-year dream. On her own, she traverses mountains, rivers, cities, and plains from summer to spring, enduring days of thick mud, blazing sun, lightning storms, and cold, starlit nights.
Throughout her journey, Naomi encounters colourful locals and travellers who both delight and inspire her. This book offers an upbeat, fascinating, and inspiring narrative of solitude, love, and friendship, capturing the joys and pains to be found in the wilderness.
