Many beautiful romantic nature spots such as the botanical garden, Elfenau/park cafe, Zehendermätteli, Gurten, Rosengarten, Münsterplattform, kleine Schanze, to name just a few fromContinue reading “Discovering Bern”

4 seasons
The forth season of the year has just started. While suddenly the landscape turns all white, I take a moment, retreat and remember the other seasons throughout this year. I like the seasons, to live and feel the special vibe of each season. The first snow has already given me moments of marvelling and playingContinue reading “4 seasons”
Building bridges
This year was much about bridges. For example, building bridges: For a good cooperation, Between cultures, Between organizations, Between people. And, I am crossing bridges, everyday, as part of my new place of living and working. The moment in the morning when I walk over the bridge inspires me to connect and build bridges duringContinue reading “Building bridges”

It is actually quite fun to scribble down the discoveries after every walk. This year, for example, I came across manyContinue reading “From the heart”

Last week, spontaneously, it came to my mind that I have received encouragement from many women along my life journey. What a beautiful gift! It started with sports when I was a small girl and also in teenage-times. Later, as part of my professional career, after my apprenticeship and during many further steps up toContinue reading “Encouragement”

Gratefulness
I dedicate this first day of this new and last month of 2017 to being grateful. Over the past years, I have started to integrate a daily practice on gratefulness into my life. It works very well for me to take a moment in the morning and another moment in the evening before falling asleep.Continue reading “Gratefulness”
Impressions from a winter walk around Rotsee
In the first days of this new year, I did some beautiful hikes and walks around Lucerne. And it reminded me of how much I love to climb mountains and undertake walks to discover and appreciate beauty of nature. What do you love to do? Has it already the place it deserves in your life?Continue reading “Impressions from a winter walk around Rotsee”
People who made a difference this year
The days are becoming shorter and shorter. So is the year. A good opportunity to start looking back on 2016. An intensive and enriching year for me. Where to start? Inspired by Sabrina Gundert’s blog post, I started writing down names of women and men who made a difference in my life this year. First andContinue reading “People who made a difference this year”
Beauty of autumn – filling us with wonder
This autumn is teaching me again to marvel, to be astonished, to wonder about the beauty of nature, the beauty of transformation. And, it is inviting me to feel the beauty of being in the present moment – in the here and now. I would stop in front of a tree and look up into itsContinue reading “Beauty of autumn – filling us with wonder”
