About Switzerlandbylocals

About us: While I was studying my master’s degree in environmental sciences (background sustainability management) at the ETH in Zurich, I asked myself: Why do I always travel abroad, although Switzerland has so many beauties to offer? Tourists from all over the world come to Switzerland to discover places like Zermatt, Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen and more. I had never been to Lauterbrunnen until then!
That was one of a few reasons that changed a lot of things for me. Since then, I have done at least 50 to 80 hikes a year, and I get to know more than 250 new places every year. I wanted to get to know Switzerland like nobody else before. Understand the landscape-forming processes, cultural traditions and the stories of the regions. I read books and absorbed knowledge. Talked to villagers and got a lot of insider knowledge that is not in any single book.

In the meantime I founded Myswisspanorama with a friend of mine. With the aim to show people the most beautiful places in Switzerland. A further goal was the guests not only see but also understand nature.
Soon I started to guide tours. The success followed not long after. First collaborations with luxury hotels were in the pipeline, on Tripadvisor Myswisspanorama worked its way up to 4th place out of 70 ourdoor providers in the Zurich region within 1.5 years. Myswisspanorama became a member of Switzerland Tourism. With Corona many things changed, the guests almost stayed away because of the closed borders, but new ideas like this blog were born. My goal is to pass on knowledge and to show the known and unknown beauty of Switzerland – to the Swiss as well as to the tourists.
Have fun discovering Switzerland and enjoy the moments in nature to the fullest.
