Christina and Felix decided to risk a housing experiment and moved to a different apartment in a different neighborhood each month over the course of one year—and in doing so, they got to know both New York and their own life from a completely new side. 

Christina Horsten is the New York correspondent of the German Press Agency ‘dpa‘. She grew up in Bonn, Prague and Berlin, where she earned her doctorate at the Freie Universität. She returned to her birthplace New York for dpa in 2012 and now lives there with Felix and their daughters.

Felix Zeltner is a journalist and co-founder of the New York-based company Work Awesome, which organizes conferences and workshops on the future of work worldwide. He comes from Nuremberg and graduated from the German School of Journalism in Munich. He has received several awards for his work (Arte, ARD, Der Spiegel).
