  The Emirates Code – Unlocking the Secrets of Tradition + Vision = Future 
  What if a country could write its own future—based on legacy, led by innovation, and powered by ambition? 
  Welcome to the United Arab Emirates. A land where ancient Bedouin wisdom meets futuristic AI, where the scent of oud lingers in the air beneath sky-piercing towers, and where a vision has transformed golden desert into global brilliance. 
  In this captivating and visionary audiobook, international businesswoman and cultural ambassador Birgit Maria Kemphues reveals the hidden formula behind the UAE’s meteoric rise. With humour, insight, and heartfelt stories, she decodes the unwritten laws of success—from boardrooms to desert tents, from high heels to humility. 
  Through vivid conversations with locals like Saleh and Ibrahim, encounters with trailblazing women, and reflections from her own bold journey, this audiobook unveils: 
  ✅ The invisible etiquette behind real influence 
  ✅ Why “thinking big” isn’t just a slogan—it’s a lifestyle 
  ✅ How the Emirates blend hospitality, heritage, and hyper-innovation into a singular code of progress 
  ✨ This is not a guidebook. It’s an experience. A cinematic, deeply personal soundscape that takes you behind the scenes of one of the most extraordinary nations on earth. 
  For dreamers, doers, and those who believe that tradition and technology can walk hand in hand.

  Over the course of twenty years of delivering sailboats to far-flung quaysides, John Kretschmer has had innumerable adventures, both humorous and terrifying. In Flirting with Mermaids, he recounts the most memorable of them. 
   
   
   
  He crosses the Western Caribbean with a crew of eccentric Swedes researching ancient Mayan mariners, lands in Aden at the outbreak of civil war, and endures a North Atlantic crossing during which he discovers the existence of Force 13 winds. Approaching Japan at the end of a particularly trying delivery, he finds himself sailing in "a high impact debris zone," but his resolve is unshaken. "If a piece of rocketship jetsam fell out of the sky and sank [me] after encounters with Hurricane Floyd, General Noriega, a tsunami, an erupting volcano, and Typhoon Roy, then it was meant to be."

  *This Recording Includes Five Original Songs* 
  Imagine having all of you needs reduced to the things you can't live without; food, water, and shelter. 
  In Footprint of a Heart, Shayla Paradeis, whose trail name is Kiddo, ventures off the path of musical theater at age 21 and moves from Manhattan to Montana. Trading tap shoes for hiking boots, she sculpts a life outdoors as a long-distance hiker. By age 34, she hiked the Appalachian, Pacific Crest, and Continental Divide Trails, the Haute Route in the Alps, and the Te Araroa across New Zealand. As well as thousands of joyful miles running across the land of her dreams, Glacier National Park. All without a smart phone. 
  Kiddo shares the trailside moments of five long journeys, including barren deserts, windy ridges above tree line, ocean tides in estuaries, narrow spaces between the painted lines of highways and guardrails, and countless peaks, passes, meadows, and valleys. Her ventures take her through swarms of bugs, knee-deep mud, every kind of precipitation imaginable, and the threat of rattlesnakes, bears, charging bulls, and one angry mama turkey. 
  Journeys are often more internal than external. As she walks, she learns that counting miles can be a self-measurement as dangerous as body-image or money. The need to connect is the true north. With an openness taught through the trees, she experiences a fulfillment she never dreamed possible. Trails are no longer a thing to do, they're a place to be.
