Cannot run NPM get Error: Cannot find module 'are-we-there-yet'

Question

I just removed Node and reinstalled it with homebrew. I first installed without npm. Then removed that version and installed node with npm.

The install was successful but now I cannot use NPM.

Anything I try with NPM I get error

module.js:338
    throw err;
    ^

Error: Cannot find module 'are-we-there-yet'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:336:15)

    at Function.Module._load (module.js:310:12)
    at Module.require (module.js:365:17)

I absolutely have no idea what to try. No npm command I can try. I tried removing and reinstalling node with homebrew but that doesnt work. Please help

UPDATE

I saw this answer: npm doesn't work, get always this error -> Error: Cannot find module 'are-we-there-yet'

But the solution did not work. I did not even have the folder

cd /usr/local/Cellar/node/0.10.22/lib/node_modules

In the lib folder there was no node_modules.

even npm i npm -g did not work.
