The book tells the story of a mountaineering trip to the summit of Kilimanjaro involving Haethum Buttikhi, colleagues, and friends.

Mr. Buttikhi shared part of his experience of this adventure, stating: “it was indeed a long journey that we enjoyed each of its stops and learned about new cultures from the beginning of our arrival at Arusha, Tanzania, until we arrived at Mount Kilimanjaro. I was aware that I had to explore my strengths, and weaknesses so that I could go through this challenging adventure. Indeed, I feel proud of this wonderful experience from which we learned the importance of working in a team, patience, endurance, and challenging oneself.”
