I Love Ascona sign

Highlight • Monument

Ascona is also worth a visit in February. We didn't have the best weather, but it was still beautiful! The locals have more time for their guests. We were completely satisfied and enjoyed it even when the weather was cloudy!😋

December 7, 2025,2025.12.07 Where Have All the Heisse Maroni Gone?? Ride 🌰🚴‍♀️🌰
A so-so looking day, so I thought: I’ll sleep longer, do a few things at home, and later I’ll casually tour Xmas markets, look at the usual junk, buy myself some roasted chestnuts, eat them by the lake, spin the legs a bit, and it’ll be nice.
The junk took 5 minutes. There were no chestnuts. I bought 3 mandarins …

And so I dressed up “like a church warden on Corpus Christi” (as …
It was one of those days when I knew that no matter what happened, I HAD to go for a ride. Not because anyone told me to - I just had this overwhelming urge.
Like on a scorching summer day when the heat pours down from the sky and you’re sweating just from existing… and suddenly you see a proper …
It’s nice to get on the bike and just ride - even into the wind 🤩

From a distance I saw my favourite little donkey 🫏 - eating from the feeder with the horses. Sometimes I wonder if he feels lonely among those tall, fiery stallions… him, small and scruffy, like the Ugly Duckling…
But he’s exactly the reason I …
What a luxury to get up at 4, do some yoga, work a few hours and go to the lake for breakfast - favourite mokka yoghurt, a sweet and juicy orange, and a crunchy bread roll. Views, sounds, scents, flavours - all sensations involved, complementary in a special way ☀️
In Switzerland, you never really know when or where a public holiday is happening, or what exactly that means 🤷‍♀️
For example, today is a holiday here in Ticino, but not in Zürich. So I'm working as usual while the neighbours are probably sleeping until noon.
The upside is that everything is wonderfully quiet and empty — perfect conditions for …
OK, I'll say it clearly: I'm moving. Life changes, and sudden shifts are always a big challenge. But they also work as a springboard: you can bounce up to reach your dreams. Scarry, unrealistic, but... alive, powerful, fulfilling. So I try 🩷
