This one in German: Ein Reiseführer, der eigentlich keiner ist: Anstatt wie traditionelle Reiseführer durch die Stadt zu führen, gibt DSCVR Inspiration, sich zu verlieren. Der Reiseführer der Zukunft wirft Fragen auf, motiviert zur kulturellen Interaktion und regt zur Reflexion des Erlebten an. Auf 156 Seiten und mit über 50 Impulsen und Stadtexperimenten inspiriert DSCVR zur Exploration – sowohl von unbekannten Orten und überraschenden Begegnungen, als auch von Gelassenheit und Muße auf Reisen. Und das Beste: Er ist für jede Stadt der Welt.

Mit Hilfe von Reisenden weltweit – von Kapstadt über Tel Aviv bis nach Tokio – habe ich ein Sammelsurium an Impulsen, Experimenten und Reflexionen entwickelt, das die Mechanismen des Reisens neu denkt.
