FESPO – the Zurich Holiday Fair – was a resounding success for Match & Travel. Just two weeks after its launch, we were able to present our new platform to a large and highly interested audience. During the fair, we handed out hundreds of flyers – not just without comment, but almost always in the context of personal conversations. Many visitors took the time to ask questions and have Match & Travel demonstrated directly on a laptop . We were particularly touched by the diversity of interest: many people were traveling alone, while others took flyers for friends, acquaintances, or even their parents. This clearly demonstrates how current and relevant the need for suitable travel companions is. We were also delighted by the numerous positive responses. We repeatedly heard comments like, "That's a fantastic idea!" or "This is exactly what we've been missing!" Our social media activities also launched in conjunction with FESPO – another important step in raising awareness of Match & Travel and further expanding our community. We are grateful for the opportunity to present Match & Travel at FESPO, and for all the encounters, conversations, and valuable feedback. We've made a start – and we're very much looking forward to everything that's to come.

Warmest regards, Astrid, founder of Match & Travel
