Overview

  • The new title, "Hallo Angst, ich mach's jetzt doch!", focuses on practical ways she confronted fear during long stretches on the road.
  • Mother and child most recently traveled from Hesse to Australia using bus, train and ship.
  • Two years earlier they cycled 4,500 kilometers to the North Cape through Denmark, Sweden and Norway, with Emil on a Follow‑Me child bike.
  • Böhm says wild camping initially triggered panic, yet repeated nights outdoors steadily reduced her anxiety.
  • She reports widespread help but also prejudices toward single mothers, and her Instagram updates reach more than 100,000 followers with many messages from encouraged solo parents.
