I Don't Know If I Particularly Want

I Have No Desire To Live Anywhere Else But New Zealand. I've Had The Good Fortune To Travel Widely Around The World, But New Zealand Is Home - And I Like To Be Here. I'm Proud To Be A New Zealander.

I Think The Whole Attitude Towards Climbing Mount Everest Has Become Rather Horrifying. The People Just Want To Get To The Top. They Don't Give A Damn For Anybody Else Who May Be In Distress And It Doesn't Impress Me At All That They Leave Someone Lying Under A Rock To Die.

Some Day I'm Going To Climb Everest.

My Mother Really Was The Strength In Our Family. She Would Sort Of Keep Us In Line And I Admired Her Very Much .

I Still Think Have This Deep Desire For Our Himalayan Trust - That We Raise The Necessary Funds, That We Do All The Things That The Sherpas Want Us To Do, And I Would Like To See Us Working Together With Them On These Projects. Even Though I'm Old And Decrepit I Still Have This Strong Feeling That I Would Like To Carry These Things Out If It Were Still Possible.
