He has lived and worked and climbed in South Africa, UK, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Hong Kong, and Switzerland. He currently lives in Zürich in Switzerland with his girlfriend, Barbara. They spend most weekends and holidays in the mountains. Harry shares their experiences in his blog, Mountain path (https://mountain-paths.com). His three children are all grown up. He's a proud grandad to six lively young people. Some of whom may become climbers like their Grandad... Harry recently started a company organising trips to African mountains. He has a simple philosophy for having started the company: to connect people who love the mountains with Africa's greatest mountains; and to make sure that the guides, cooks, and porters who support them, get a wage worthy of their efforts. (Sadly, many of the guides, cooks and porters are desperate for work, and will work for a quarter or less of what they should be paid. Often, they have to provide their own food and equipment while on the mountain, so that the less ethical tour operators can put extra money in their own pockets.) His company is called Walk in Wild Places (https://walkinwildplaces.com/), and he would love to help you get to the top of Africa's mountains.visualizza meno
