Technology, which affects all aspects of our lives, has brought some innovations and changes in experiential design and experiential products and services. In the postmodern era, digitalization acts as a framework for various services, media and communication, mobile games, and physical spaces. The digital transformations brought about by technology have led to problem-solving, creative functioning, and unique improvements along with experiences. Digital and experience orientation did not emerge in just one area. Human-digital-experience interaction prevails in many areas of modern society. To evaluate this interaction, a more balanced understanding of digital and experience processes is required. Therefore, the research done in this book gains creativity with interdisciplinary diversity and cooperation. The chapters cover key subject areas such as ""tourism and tourist experience"", ""gastronomy experience and wine experience"", ""theme park experience, digital transformation and customer relationship experience in tourism"", ""airline and airport experience"", and ""brand experience"".

Therefore, this book serves as an up-to-date and dynamic resource for academics, students, marketers, application developers, tourism, and destination managers, planning and project managers.

Sometimes you have to die in order to live.

Big Brother Night. A fraternity pledge. Hazing. Alcohol overindulgence. Blacking out. A traumatic head injury.

These are all the things that led up to Bryan Dulaney being dropped off on the sidewalk at the emergency room, and left for dead by strangers from the fraternity house when he was a minor.

At .40 you are dead. Bryan's blood alcohol level that night was .39.

The doctors knew Bryan should have been dead, but God had much bigger plans and a purpose for Bryan Dulaney.

When you're in the darkness, keep walking and you will get to the light.

The author went through the darkest period of his life and transformed it into a brand new life filled with more meaning and a bigger purpose than even he could see at the time.

When Bryan Dulaney left the hospital that miraculous day in 2003, he serendipitously saw a sign on the road that read: "God has a plan and purpose for your life."

• His geography
• The unforgiveness he was holding against his father and himself
• His business
• His school
• His lifestyle

As everything was dying, Bryan Dulaney was learning how to live anew.
