Just get off the couch and into adventure – this is how the recipe for Christo Foerster’s little escapes from everyday life can be described. How a snap idea turned into a real escapade for him and how anyone without a big budget can discover the world on their doorstep.
Christo Foerster – this name actually stands for micro-adventures, i.e. small excursions on your own doorstep. But for almost two months, the man from Hamburg embarked on his greatest adventure to date. From south to north, once across Germany. 1602 kilometers from the Zugspitze to Sylt, 1000 kilometers with the stand-up paddleboard on the water, the rest on foot. 54 days on the road with 40 kilograms of luggage. In an interview with Stern, he explains why the man of little adventures suddenly embarked on a big journey, how he came to escape from everyday life and how everyone can get out of their comfort zone and into the next escapade.
