Unsuspecting outsiders often assume that Canadians are just like their American neighbors, if perhaps a little more modest. However, there is much more to it than that. Canadian society is a complex mosaic of distinct cultural identities that vary from province to province, and with high levels of immigration, it is one of the most multicultural societies in the world.

This forest isn't charted on any map. Every car breaks down at its treeline. Mina's is no different. Left stranded, she is forced into the dark woodland only to find a woman shouting, urging Mina to run to a concrete bunker. As the door slams behind her, the building is besieged by screams. Mina finds herself in a room with a wall of glass, and an electric light that activates at nightfall, when the watchers come above ground. These creatures emerge to observe their captive humans and terrible things happen to anyone who doesn't reach the bunker in time. 

Tiziano Terzani in Asia: una storia lunga una vita. Ma è Terzani a raccontarci l'Asia o è l'Asia che ci racconta Terzani? Difficile dirlo, tanto forte è il legame che quest'uomo ha deciso di stringere, fin dal 1965, con il più contraddittorio e misterioso dei continenti; un legame nato quasi per caso e, come succede ai grandi amori, rinsaldato non soltanto dalla passione, ma anche dalle difficoltà, dalle differenze, dai contrasti.

The Kisoji, which runs through the Kiso Valley in the Japanese Alps, has been in use since at least 701 CE. In the 17th century, it was the route that the daimyo (warlords) used for their biennial trips - along with their samurai and porters - to the new capital of Edo (now Tokyo).

Makalu vanquished him, and he was never the same climber again. Fifty years later, Mark Horrell embarked on a trek up the Barun Valley to follow in Hillary’s footsteps – at least some of the way.
