Vom Glück zu reisen - Ein Reisehandbuch

What defines a journey? Which sights can you skip? Where does paradise await? What is an adventure? Where is it still authentic? And why does the beach always look more beautiful on Instagram than in reality? Philipp Laage shares insights on how we travel today and why – wisely, critically, and with plenty of humor. He brings countless stories from his travels around the world: he dives into the nightlife of Beirut, searches for the perfect spot for love in Malawi, curses his smartphone in South Tyrol, and climbs an active volcano in the rebel territory of East Congo – all while trying to understand what that elusive happiness of being on the road really is. "Ironical, entertaining, and philosophical at the same time." – Weser Kurier "Philipp Laage debunks widely held myths about happiness and reveals what truly brings joy while traveling." – Bild.de "This book forces its readers through valleys and dark depths, from which they emerge having learned something." – Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung.
