Dear Travelers: If the primary condition for you in the art of travel is that all unknown things are meticulously and systematically listed; or conversely, you believe that novelty is an indispensable joy in traveling and the greatest pleasure of living in a foreign land, please immerse yourself in the chapters of this travel guide.
First, this guidebook, though limited in scope, provides you with a detailed and complete overview of this region. This will be your first journey through these words, and your actual travel will be equally rich and diverse.
Second, this small booklet will become your loyal, cautious, and reliable companion, guiding you through bustling streets and alleys, participating in sometimes challenging folk festivals and celebrations, and navigating labyrinthine markets without getting lost.
The authors of this guidebook have a special fondness for islands, a love for grasslands, a passion for snow, and dreams of paradise. We are journalists, writers, translators, art critics, filmmakers, university students, and professors from various travel regions. Of course, there are also professional travelers, former members of the United Nations peacekeeping forces, and a handful of brilliant individuals living on the fringes of society! Our group has gathered a diverse group of global travelers: French, Italian, Spanish, American, Bolivian, Swedish, Norwegian, Russian, Canadian, and Lebanese, all fluent in French.
From these geniuses, we have drawn the essence, first cultivating passion to form a personalized, even unique, writing style, which benefits the guidebook as well. This travel series, written in multiple languages, is like the Tower of Babel in the Bible—grand in scale but never fully completed. We hope to create a flexible and adaptable series, rather than one bound by rigid conventions. This series clearly depicts the realities of life, faithfully recounting the full scope of the scenery, loving ancient bricks and mortar and the vibrant colors of the markets, and never shying away from anything.
To write a travel guide, everything must be included, and the most important information for modern travelers is found on our pages: real-life experiences, cultural customs, and adventurous encounters. Of course, there is much more.
After presenting the entire journey—which is the purpose of every guidebook—the decision to set off is yours. Whether you are a well-prepared traveler or an experienced adventurer, a university student or a retiree, and regardless of how you travel—whether with family or friends, traveling in a group or alone—you can choose the best way for you to live as an exile in a foreign land.
