Es gibt Zeiten, da liegt unser Leben auf Eis und wir fühlen uns wie aus der Welt gefallen. Durch eine Krankheit oder den Verlust eines geliebten Menschen, durch Arbeitslosigkeit - oder durch ein Virus, das die ganze Welt innehalten lässt. Katherine May nennt diese Zeiten des Rückzugs "Winter". Und wie auch im Winter alles ruht, um Kraft für den Frühling zu sammeln, so gibt May sich dem "Überwintern" hin. Sie reist nach Tromsø zu den Polarlichtern, schwimmt im eisigen Meer, schwitzt in der Sauna und feiert das Winterfest Santa Lucia.
