LET’S COVER THE WORLD WITH UPSIDE DOWN ADVENTURES

Lockdown has pushed us to adapt and to change things up in the current circumstances. 

The question is how do we build community while we are still indoors? 

That is why this years handbalance challenge is to cover the globe in all sorts of handbalancing pictures without the pressure of having to go out and meet with people during these hard times. It also will be a fun way to look back on old memories and to share them with others. 

 Hundreds of  people already added their pictures. So whether it’s a new or an old photo come and join us in making a fabulous piece of art at the same time connecting with other like minded wonderful people ❤

HAVE QUESTIONS?
WE HAVE ANSWERS

Do I have to post a new photo?
No that’s the beauty of it. You can use an old photo of yourself. We are looking to cover the most ground so obscure places are welcome.
Can I post my house?
Baring in mind this is a public map so sharing your private location is something you do at your own risk.
What is the map for?

Fun interactive tour of the world from handbalancing perspectives. Art in it’s own right. Explore and enjoy.

Why are we doing this?

Lockdown has pushed us to adapt and to change things up in the current circumstances. The question is how do we build community while we are still indoors?

The annual handbalance challenge has become a big part of my life and it always brings me and others so much joy.

That is why this year handbalance challenge is to map the world in handbalancing photographs. The vision is to cover the globe in lovely handbalancing pictures without the pressure of having to go out and meet with people during these hard times. I think it will be a fun way to look back on old memories and to share them with others.

So far we’ve had a great response to the idea and its growing out to more and more countries. So whether it’s a new or an old photo come and join us in making a fabulous piece of art at the same time connecting with other like-minded wonderful people ❤
