Great little things
After another quite packed week, I am having some thoughts about the little things in life that give rise to great results and that are worth being recognized as precious as the results themselves.

Swapping the rivers
Airplanes fly fast and transport people from A to B in the shortest possible time. Emotions, on the other hand, are sometimes slower.
-
About colors and feelings
The ninth week was a rollercoaster of emotions and weather. Melancholy and anticipation, cold rain and warm spring days.

A visit to the Windy City
It’s interesting how different the individual weeks can be. After the last two were rather monotonous, this week was packed with variety and new things.

Endless winter
Winter has pulled out all the stops again this week. A potpourri of gray, silent days, snow flurries and deep blue, but very cold and windy moments.

Between laziness and productivity
I sometimes have phases in which I admit that I tend to be lazy. This week was somewhat characterized by this, but in the end it was a productive and fulfilling one.
-
The return of the sun
After what felt like an eternity, sunny days returned at the end of the week, creating a spring-like mood and a nice end to a fairly productive week.

Average days
Even if you are surrounded by countless offers, there is also something like an everyday life in New York and days that just come and go.

Winter reloaded
New York welcomed me in the same way that Basel bid me farewell: white and bitterly cold. But the week was affected by jet lag anyway and I took it easy.

A white winter week
Winter has finally shown its best side, with cold, frost and snow. The first, and probably last winter week in Basel this season for me.

New year, same old happiness
The start of the new year was unspectacular and tranquil, which was exactly what I was looking for in these troubled times.

Between the years
Those special days between Christmas and New Year… you look back and at the same time wonder what might come, hoping everything will be getting better.

Winter solstice week
Winter solstice at last! In contrast to the summer solstice, this dark time of year fills me deep down with anticipation for longer and brighter days.

The diversity of December days
I have to admit, I didn’t start the new week very enthusiastically, which had begun gray and dark. I had the feeling that all days consisted of nothing but night.

Rules of Life
This week I involuntarily received a refresher course on how life works and that it doesn’t always go the way you want it to. But what you can do is make the best of it.

Déjà vu – yet different
After I thought I had overcome my cold, the cold started all over again at the beginning of the week and shaped the rest of my daily routine.

November Days
I always have an ambivalent relationship with the cold season. Some years I hate it, the cold and especially the darkness. The gray, dreary days and endless nights. Other years, however, I don’t mind it at all.

How quickly everything can change. After starting in New York on Monday, the week came to an end for me in my bed in Basel.

A week to myself
While the weather in Basel is rainy and windy, I’m enjoying another sunny week in New York before my return journey.

The city that never gets boring
Due to the visit of our friends from Germany, I have explored many places this week that are normally on the tourist agenda. Including places I didn’t know yet. I realized once again how diverse New York City is.
