Mikrokosmos · Hamburg


Hello there! My mikrokosmos book tells a short
story about my "flathunt" in Hamburg.
Some of you already know St. Pauli, Altona,
Eimsbüttel, Wilhelmsburg and these other great
parts of town.


Flathunting (I was surprised by that term, very fitting
translation) in Hamburg can be like sightseeing,
but as in Munich, it can really be difficult.
People often search for weeks or months,
and finally stay in minuscule rooms because of the
frightfully high rents. (especially artists :)


I like this very special town with the impressive harbour,
spacious alleys and beautiful architecture,
Alster channels and the many 'alternative' districts,
not to forget the big illustrators scene.

Hamburg has a great energy.

On monday the books go to the printer - in Italy!
Best regards, Boris
