Anywhere, A Travel Handbook
Today’s post really should be filed under “awesome projects I wish I would have come up with first.” Swedish design student Magda Lipka Falck‘s Anywhere – A Travel Handbook completely won me over with her creative look at a travel guide. She describes the project saying:
There are many different types of travel. Sometimes they carry us right across the globe, sometimes out into space and sometimes just around the block. Sometimes there is a journey going on inside us.
I have created a travel guide that is situated somewhere in the middle. A travel guide that will hopefully lead you to places you have never seen before – though you may visit them every day. A place you have forgotten, a place you have never searched for or a place that does not exist.
Check out the full post (and more pictures) of her project on Coolhunting.

The guide books are the source of information about the particular place or destination and describe the main characteristics and some sort of integral and value-based information about a country or city.
The guide book tells us all the geographical knowledge as well as the cultural and heritage guidance of that specific destination for sure. But, one can do some kind of different, according to its mind and not follow the guide books like traditionally travel freaks do.
One must have the ability and a kind of spirit of exploring new horizons and find new place, which are still unknown and anonymous and you have got the privilege to find that particular destination in your ultimate voyage and have some passion and obsession to go forth and discover new heights of traveling with youthful enthusiasm and joyful ambitions for sure.

Brilliant idea! I think I will go downtown and follow the map she made and see where I end up. Maybe I will turn a new corner…
