No love affair, Hans Werner Richter House

Emigrating is for adventurers.

People who leave everything behind to start anew in a foreign country must be courageous, fearless, and curious. They set off to quench the burning longing in their hearts. The unknown beckons them, and the familiar bores them. Where others cautiously peek around the corner, they, driven by wanderlust, are already running. They are among those who see obstacles as challenges and perceive stagnation as an imposition.

Emigrants embody pretty much everything I lack. They're like my friend. He showed me that there are moments in life when you simply have to take the plunge. Into the deep end, overcoming your fears and crossing the Alps. To where your heart beats faster. Follow Mitzi Irsaj on a turbulent, humorous journey about friendship, longing, and the adventure of a new life under the Italian sun.
