La búsqueda de sensaciones intensas, desconectar del mundo hiperconectado y conectarse con la naturaleza para acabar conectándose con su propia esencia. Son muchos los navegantes que anhelan soltar amarras un día y perderse en el mar durante años. Muy pocos los que lo hacen. Las circunstancias de cada uno cuentan, pero, sobre todo, el que da el paso es porque lo ha convertido en la prioridad de su vida. Cuando esto sucede, es muy posible que acabe encontrando la manera de llevarlo a cabo, o por lo menos de intentarlo, y con ello quedar en paz con su alma. Así lo hicieron Imma y Hans. Tuvalu es una historia que parece sacada de un libro clásico de aventuras. Nos descubre cómo, todavía hoy, en pleno siglo xxi, es posible llegar a lugares remotos, islas de una belleza extraordinaria, navegando en tu propio velero y estableciendo contacto con sus gentes. Lugares donde la arrolladora civilización apenas ha metido su zarpa y que conservan una virginidad que nos obliga a revisar seriamente el verdadero significado del concepto «progreso». Del prólogo de David Ruiz, autor de 'irse. ' Hans Geilinger nació en Suiza, rodeado de montañas y alejado del oleaje. A los treinta y dos años decidió dejar su tierra natal para explorar el mundo y se estableció en Barcelona, donde ejerció como arquitecto y profesor de arquitectura. Allí adquirió su primer velero para recorrer el Mediterráneo y, posteriormente el Tuvalu, un Dufour 40 Performance con el que emprendió, en 2011, la vuelta al mundo junto con su esposa lmma, un viaje de doce años y cincuenta mil millas náuticas. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
