The Great Summer Tour: English Edition

One summer. One journey. And the quiet question: Where does searching end – and freedom begin? It’s the summer of 2003. Jonas has just finished school – and has a plan: to explore Europe with his best friend, David. But shortly after the start of their journey, everything changes. One decision puts their friendship to the test, and suddenly Jonas is on his own – with an Interrail ticket, an overly heavy backpack, and a feeling that this trip might turn out to be more than just an adventure. From the canals of Amsterdam, across the Alps, all the way to the Mediterranean – Jonas explores cities, gets lost in the wilderness, and meets people who stir something inside him. He loses himself, perseveres, faces fears he has long run from. And then he meets Franz: a young Viennese with intelligent eyes, a quiet attraction, and the courage to be himself. “The Great Summer Tour” is a story about letting go and growing up, about solitude and belonging. About the feeling that anything is possible – and the realization that you don’t have to run away to find yourself. A poetic coming-of-age road trip across Europe – filled with longing, summer, and the magic of faraway places. View Less
