Happy tourists get lost

Soazic Guezennec is managing “Happy tourists”, the first and unique travel agency inviting people to get lost. It is a provocative, disruptive art project created in Berlin in 2018, with the serious objective to raise awareness on how mass tourism impacts cities and the environment and find new ways to be (or not to be) a tourist.

Convinced that discovery is more about personal experiences than expected outcome, Soazic uses artistic practice to design creative impulses which distract tourists from attractions, emphasize drifting in the unknown, and allow for unexpected encounters. Situations result in journeys which are personal, unplanned, rewarding, authentic, not guaranteed but allow tourists to discover the beauty in the common and the surprise in the everyday. Embark on a travel with Soazic in this Walk Listen Café (un)exploring the uncharted territories of common places and tourist destinations.

oversupinate

People who jog, run, and sprint have their share of problems that slow-moving people can barely comprehend. One is oversupination. As the OED defines it, to oversupinate is “To run or walk so that the weight falls upon the outer sides of the feet to a greater extent than is necessary, desirable, etc.” A 1990 Runner’s World article gets to the crux of the problem: “It’s hard to ascertain exactly what percentage of the running population oversupinates, but it’s a fraction of the people who think they do.” Credits to Mark Peters.
