More than a week has passed since I packed most of my belongings and moved to Switzerland. Time flies, and with the amount of things to do here, to organize and to explore, it will probably not slow down. But at the same time I want to try my best not to let time fly by unconsciously – I want to be here for every little moment that will eventually become the building blocks of this new chapter of my life.

Turns out it didn’t work out quite as I had planned – half of the time I turned the alarm off (work flow, on the toilet, etc…) and forgot to take a photo. So bear with me, it’s not exactly every hour. But I thought that could also be a good metaphor for life, that life rarely goes as planned.

After a few years of issues with iron, this time my results looked really good! That’s a great start to my preparations for the expedition in Nepal this October.
Read MoreI point on a peak on the map and say: let’s go there. We pack our things in the car, not much, just some clothes and food to fuel the long days out.
Read MoreAs much as I hate to say it, injuries have been a part of my life for the better part of four years now 🤦♀️ If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I’ve spent many hours in the gym either rehabing from an injury or from surgery.
Read MoreI had planned to write a resume of 2022 in my diary. But we live in a digital world, and I am just as addicted to all things digital as everyone else. So, here we go: a public digital resume of my two-thousand-twenty-two.
