I’ve read many blogs about people warning about Switzerland’s high prices. I can’t deny it – Switzerland is expensive. Food, in particular, can be 45% higher than the western European average.

That has helped you to discover youself and develop new hobbies. Well you can’t, really. Instead, I’ll [...]

This is a continuation of my day hiking from Belalp to Riederalp, in the Bernese Alps. Don’t miss the first part of the 14 kms hike! At the time I placed my feet on the suspension bridge, adrenaline sarted to rush through my veins. I was walking on a gridded floor, and 80 meters beneath, [...]

Remember the list of things I planned on doing during my week of Vacation? I’m proud to say I went through almost all of it. Almost. The one thing I did miss was renting out a bike – on my defense, it was around 35C during the day, and roads hardly ever were lit at [...]

Tulum, Mexico, Summer 2008 I recently wrote about how I could adapt to a life away from the ocean, but couldn’t get rid of the beach person inside me. I will always search for sun, ocean and sand to load up my batteries. As much as I love traveling across a country (or region), and [...]

Tomorrow I’m off for a week of vacation! I’ll be headed to Ibiza for one day – mainly to visit the hippy markets, which are another addiction of mine, almost at the same level of cheese- and then spend 7 days on the archipelago’s tiny secret, Formentera. … And this is all I’ve packed. Ok, [...]
