Author Thomas Meyer now writes for Galaxus

From his penchant for knick-knacks and his wild time as a bike courier to the art of napping - Thomas Meyer is now writing for Galaxus magazine.

The author and columnist Thomas Meyer is now writing texts for Galaxus magazine. Meyer is known for his book "Wolkenbruchs wunderliche Reise in die Arme einer Schickse". It was published in 2012 and spent 70 weeks in the bestseller lists. The story was made into a film in 2017 and subsequently became a cinema hit.

Meyer, 46 years old and based in Zurich, addresses everyday topics in his articles and combines them with autobiographical stories. The editorial articles in the Galaxus magazine are intended to offer readers new perspectives - and deliberately go beyond the online shop's range of products.

"I'm really looking forward to the collaboration. Galaxus gives me all the freedom I need and I hope that I will surprise readers with my writing," says Meyer. His first article has just appeared on galaxus.ch and is about his passion for collecting small objects. Meyer also has his own author profile on Galaxus: anyone who doesn't want to miss any of his texts can follow him with just one click. Subscribers will receive a message by email as soon as a new article by Meyer is published.

Martin Jungfer, Head of Content at Digitec Galaxus AG, describes the appointment of Thomas Meyer as "extremely gratifying". "We are proud to have Thomas Meyer, one of Switzerland's most interesting authors, on board for our concept," says Jungfer. Entertaining content is an important part of the content on sale in the Galaxus magazine. Jungfer emphasises that the articles and videos produced by the Galaxus editorial team are independent of the online retailer's commercial interests. "That's another reason why Thomas Meyer joined us. We very much appreciate the fact that he will be able to contribute his articles to the quality and diversity of the content."
