From Alaska to Tierra del Fuego: An Adventurous Journey Through America
41,000 kilometers by bicycle, 20 months on the road, and a whole continent full of contrasts: Thomas Meixner takes the audience in Potsdam on an impressive multimedia journey from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego. The event combines personal travel experiences, impressive photographs, videos, and audio recordings into a lively presentation about landscapes, cultures, and the people along the Pan-American Highway.
From the Arctic North to the Pacific
The journey begins in Alaska and initially leads to the Arctic as far as Inuvik. It then continues through the Yukon Territory and along the Alaska Highway through British Columbia to Vancouver. The vastness of the American north, lonely roads, and changing landscapes characterize this section of the discovery experience.
Through Canada and the United States
From the Pacific, the route heads further east to the St. Lawrence River, where the colorful Indian Summer provides a special highlight. After that, Thomas Meixner crosses the USA, passing the Mississippi, reaching New Orleans, and continuing to Florida. The presentation portrays America as a culturally diverse continent between metropolis, natural areas, and highways.
Caribbean, Jungle, and the Heights of the Andes
After a detour to the Maya culture in Yucatán, a 2,000-kilometer bicycle stage through Cuba follows. In South America, experiences range from Caracas through the humid Amazon region to the thin air of Bolivia. A special highlight is the ascent of the 6,439-meter-high Illimani at the gates of La Paz.
Patagonia and the End of the Pan-American Journey
Traveling through Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Chile, the journey reaches Patagonia. Thomas Meixner reports on stormy landscapes, the solitude of the Argentine steppe, and the arrival in Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world. From there, the ride continues north through national parks of the southern Andes to Santiago de Chile.
A Presentation with Authentic Travel Images
As a world traveler, Thomas Meixner combines geographical knowledge with personal observations and immediate travel experiences. The multimedia show makes local history, foreign cultures, and spectacular natural areas come alive on the screen. Photographs, film sequences, and audio recordings give the audience insights into a journey that goes far beyond classic attractions.
