Deepmapping the City Beyond Hashtags and Algorithms

Step off the beaten tourist trail and into the living, breathing fabric of Berlin. Mind the Map is not your typical city tour—it’s a psychogeographic and deep mapping experience that invites you to explore Berlin through mood, atmosphere, and a heightened sense of place.

Inspired by the practices of artists, writers, and urban thinkers, we drift through the city not by its landmarks alone, but by the subtle forces that shape how we feel, move, and imagine. Together, we uncover the hidden emotional geographies of Berlin—those in-between spaces, fleeting impressions, and unexpected encounters that don’t make it onto official maps.

This is both a physical and intellectual journey, drawing from urban studies, cultural history, environmental psychology, art, and philosophy. Along the way, we reflect on questions such as:

• How does a city’s architecture influence our state of mind?
• Which places feel inviting—and which push us away?
• How does memory, culture, and personal narrative shape the way we navigate urban space?

Using the tools of deep mapping, we weave together personal impressions, sensory observations, and the city’s layered histories into a richer understanding of place. Expect to walk, pause, listen, and observe—with an openness to being surprised by the city.

Perfect for: urban explorers, creatives, educators, cultural travelers, and reflective wanderers seeking a fresh, thought-provoking way to engage with Berlin.

This is intentional travel for curious minds, a niche urban experience for those who want to slow down and truly inhabit the city’s soul.
