Changing Pages
Here it is – a new breeze in my life. From rainy Basel to sunny and warm New York. Leaving is at the same time a coming home and always feels so good to change perspective.
-
Enriching ordinary days
Finally a more versatile week in terms of weather and a week that feels more like October than the previous ones. Also, a week of preparation and a week in which I realized how beneficial little escapes from the daily grind can be.
-
Caught up in everyday life
Another unexciting week that has come and gone without leaving much of a trace. With everything else that’s going on in the world right now, I have to admit that it’s not the worst thing if everything is still the same at the end of the week as it was at the beginning.
-
An Alpine Monday escape
After two jam-packed weeks with many tasks that I could mark as done (and more tasks that were added), I started this week with a hike in the Bernese Oberland.
-
About bringing order into chaos
Colors, shapes and structures…the components that make up our environment. Be it in nature or made by humans. This week’s photos of things that inspired me deal with this topic in architecture and nature.
-
Endless Summer
Basel welcomed me after my return from the mountains with another hot summer week. Still packed with impressions of last week’s hiking tour and a small cold, I started into rather sluggish days.
-
Snow in August
It’s an open secret that life gets interesting whenever you step out of your comfort zone. That’s what I did this week, going on a 6-day hike that brought an incredibly diverse August to an end and a fresh September to begin.
-
August Heat
Completely in the sign of the heat, this week was characterized by a rather sluggish course. The fan was my constant companion and I was actually never surrounded by temperatures below 30°C/86°F. Except while swimming in the Rhine.
-
A very warm welcome
A relaxed flight back to Switzerland, which welcomes me with a heat wave. Due to this, a week of slightly sluggish but satisfied days, in which I can fully absorb the heat of summer again.
-
The power of goodbye
A week completely in the sign of the farewell. First the goodbye to the beach life at the beginning of the week and then the experience of the last days in New York, before the return trip to Basel.
-
Island Life
An entire week on Fire Island. Days that glide along carefree, like the ocean waves on the beach. And the rest of the world so far away. Switching off once more before the end of what could have stayed like this for a while longer.
-
Just ordinary life
There are weeks where not much happens and they are quickly told. And they also happen in such exciting places as New York or Fire Island. This week is one of those.
-
The (almost) perfect Fire Island life
This week I was caught up in the rhythm of island life. Surrounded by water, the rest of the world seems infinitely distant there. I found to myself, lived just for the moment and became open for new, creative ideas.
-
What a difference a day makes
My summer in New York is always a time of extremes. An alternation between the hectic cosmopolitan city, with its impulsive energy and bustling life, on the one hand, and the seclusion of Fire Island on the other: peaceful nature, surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, without cars, without stress, just sand, ocean, sky.
-
From Basel to Paradise
Then it was there, the week of departure, the week of Adieu Basel and Hi there New York. In the end everything went very fast and I found myself physically faster in my other reality than my mind could follow first.
-
Preparation Week
This is my last week in Basel and while I’m working off my todo lists and constantly making new lists, I’m trying to enjoy the time here again to the fullest.
-
Summer Solstice
My Basel summer is in full swing and this week we reached the longest day of the year. Like every peak, this one is also based on the realization that things are now going downhill again.
-
The most perfect summer week
I can’t complain about my life and every morning I look forward to the day ahead. But there are weeks that are a little more special than others and days that I look forward to especially. Last week was once again such a moment with ArtBasel taking place in the city.
-
Back to reality number one
The trip from New York to Basel is always the most difficult of the travel constellations that occur in my life between New York and Basel. It almost always also means saying goodbye to my partner for several months, making the already difficult parting from The Big City that so much more difficult.
-
Everyday’s life and New Jersey
The last two weeks have kind of blended together seamlessly. I found the days of the first week somehow too trivial to fill a blog post with. So there’s no overview of week 6. Although I did snap a few pictures that were taken while jogging in Central Park.
