This empty, monotonous landscape is a huge emotion amplifier. It’s all about me. I’m the only living thing out here, inside a radius of 200 kilometers. This white plain seems like one huge mirror that amplifies everything that I am and everything that is within me. […] Is this march through the frozen desert one huge temptation for my faith, or is it one huge cleansing and filtering of life’s illusions? Actually something has happened. This vast Antarctic emptiness is dismantling me to my basic components. It’s peeling from me all the layers of the stories that I thought had made me what I really am.
Polar Dream is a story of the strength of human will, endurance, courage, dedication, belief in yourself. But also a story of one amazing dream and all it took to reach it. If you are an adventurer, a wanderer, or you just like to learn about untouched and hidden corners of our planet and its majestic beauty, this is the book you should have and read. Not only to give respect to Davor, who is the 26th person in the history who achieved something so incredible that borders with craziness—to walk by himself, unassisted and unsupported, on his expedition from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole, but also to listen to his motivating and inspiring thoughts and voice. Because for him, there is no giving up.
“My arena is silent and lonely, but support from my fans echoes faintly through this holy silence, and on its wings I fly toward victory.”

47 days in heaven. Without support of any assist. Great story about life journey to become 26th adventurer who successfully achieved this. Book is full of valuable motivational quotes and framework how to plan and achieve this type of adventure, but as well it ls applicable to all life activities.

So inspiring and give you a strength when you need it! Powerful! What a man can do by itself. This is not just an empty motivation speech.
