From Russian palaces to nomadic yurts, one Gainesville couple has traveled the globe. Laura Hartert brought back rocks from a Mount Everest 17, 280-foot base camp. Husband Wolfgang collects caps. The Everest trip was 80 kilometers over "terrible roads," Laura Hartert said. "It was great." - photo by Photos by NAT GURLEY
Name a place, and odds are Wolfgang Hartert has visited it. In fact, if he learns you’re planning a trip there, he pounces on his map collection, asks "May I suggest a route?" and offers to help you arrange accommodations. After all, it’s more than likely the Gainesville resident has been there and done that.
