Book excerpt: There are over 280 million immigrants in the world - more than 10 million in Germany alone. For many, home is one of the most complicated words in existence. Through real stories and Augmented Reality, this book offers a glimpse into the life of an immigrant defined by political and socio-economic unrest, growing hostility, and the weight of being an Ausländer. Possibly forever. This story isn't just mine; it's that of friends, colleagues, and strangers I've encountered and interviewed on this journey - real people with real experiences. From the crushing bureaucracy that reduces you to a mere number to the deep longing for a home that may never love you back, these tales are about more than just moving abroad. They capture the essence of finding your place in a world that doesn't trust you. Whether you're flipping through pages or immersing yourself in the interactive content, you'll experience the highs, lows, and deeply human moments of those who dare to dream of belonging.
