Synopsis

Where were you last during the holidays? Can you still remember what made the decision to go exactly there? Do you know that nearby celebrations can be insanely exciting / adventurous / unforgettable / spectacular? That's our approach. For many years, society has reinforced the opinion: the farther away, the more exciting. But not the number of kilometres travelled decides the memories we create - no, we ourselves are the smith of our travel happiness. If it is not the number of flight hours or car journeys - which we usually remember well for a long time - why should we continue to pollute the environment with long journeys? We advocate not to make the world a village, but to discover the world in a village, at a glance. Let yourself be inspired by the pictures, spend your free time at the front door, go on the search for the photo motif for which you do not have to go to the other side of the planet, but maybe just overcome the roasty ditch. Swiss nature, the Swiss mountains/landscapes, but also the Swiss cities, are waiting for so much - join us on a journey of discovery and inspire others for a sustainable future. Behind the Closeby project are three people: Maja Haus, Lukas Schönbächler and Karin Rey, who cover the areas of marketing, IT and text. The three come from the same Aargau corner and have been in the same youth club for years. Hiking and organising is therefore one of their core competencies. The Closeby project was created within 48 hours at the Zurich climathon in 2019. The project (then in the form of a website) convinced: they were invited to the World Final in Paris in 2020, where their project won the second prize.
