ABOUT US

Unknown people in unknown towns,
placed at the centre.

Meanwhile, Somewhere... is a local-news project about everyday life in small towns and regional communities around the world.

The world is getting on with ordinary life

Beyond major events, libraries hold gatherings, shops try small ideas, animals visit parks and residents care about things the rest of the world never hears about. We collect those stories carefully.

Warmth without demanding emotion

We do not force a lesson or use news to attack someone. The feeling we value is simply: “I never knew that town existed.”

Our sources

We check facts in the original reporting, then write an independent story rather than translating the article. Every story links to its sources, and reference images state their origin and licence.
