It is the 60th anniversary this year of Sir Edmund Hilary and Tenzing Norquay being the first to climb Mt Everest. For me, Edmund Hilary represents a real Kiwi Hero. Yes, he achieved an amazing feat, but it is
what he did later to help the people of Nepal and how he lived his life, that makes him someone to look up to.
