He wrote the first travel guide of an often underestimated and ignored geography, Xavier de Maistre: Journey in My Room, which will surprise travelers traveling through the world's hidden corners, paradise places and challenging routes.
Xavier de Maistre, one of the writers of the late 18th century, who was sentenced to a mandatory forty-two days of imprisonment in his 'huge' room with a perimeter of thirty-six steps, went down in literary history by managing to transform his imprisonment into an ironic text of freedom. Maistre suggests that it is possible for a person to separate his body and soul, despite the external conditions that restrict him; While he can send his soul wherever he wants, to any kind of beauty he desires to see, he does not refrain from describing in detail the topography of the room that his body encounters on this journey, from the bed to the armchair, from the table to the paintings hanging on the walls.
Journey in My Room is one of the texts that will be well understood by those who can feel the freedom of a traveler even in captivity.
"Can a person really be so unfortunate and abandoned that he doesn't even have a tiny room where he can hide from everyone? That's all the preparation for the journey consists of."
