Overview"Broadcaster and passionate traveller, Marguerite Maccurtin, writes of her personal journey in understanding the universality of the 'human condition', and that the underlying impulse to reach out and connect transcends the barriers of race, language and geographical location. ""Later I realised that this was the most powerful moment of the journey for me. Here I was, a stranger who had wandered in from the Tibetan plateau in the need of shelter and comfort, and I was offered both in abundance. We had no word in common but without the benefit of language it is the non-verbals that click into place: body language, gesture, mime, eye contact, facial expressions, basic intuition. The condition of being human is universal I discovered and the underlying impulse to reach out and connect transcends the barriers of race, language and geographical location.""
