The wind magically whispers greetings from foreign lands into Leo's ear. Excited, the little wanderer sets off for a long journey.
Along the way Leo sees many wonders of the world, and meets kind people who are willing to lend a hand, even to a perfect stranger. An old writer also teaches Leo to listen, and pay close attention to the messages that people reveal beyond their words.
At last the little wanderer returns home, wiser and content.

Vinden viskar hälsningar från främmande länder i Lars' öra. Full av förväntan ger sig den lille vandraren ut på en lång vandring under vilken han möter livets stora och små under.
Lars träffar varmhjärtade människor som tar hand också om en obekant vandrare. Alltid behövs inte ens ett gemensamt språk. Människornas sinne fylls av samma glädjeämnen och sorger. Den gamle författaren lär Lars vikten av att lyssna på livet och till det budskap som finns mellan orden.
Då resan är slut finner vandraren det tryggt att sätta sig vid hemmets trappa och beundra den välbekanta dalen som kvällssolen förgyllt. Det är dags att reflektera över minnena som finns bevarade i hans hjärta.
