Stuck… and trying not to let the powerful doubt win…
Today I was supposed to meet my hubby at the top of a pass in der Berner Oberland, have a coffee, ride the bus down to another town, and then have lunch with him. Guess what? It is not happening as planned. So often when my very detailed plans do not pan out, I lose…

I Need To Catch Up…
Todd and I have hiked much and posted little. However this is the week I try to catch up.🤣 Geez, I cannot remember the last time I posted about one of our adventures… so I will start with the latest and work my way back. On the first Sunday in November we traveled to Domodossola…

CERN
Thursday 29 May 2025, Todd and I visited CERN for the first time since moving to Switzerland nearly 6 years ago. I am surprised I did not make this trip before now. All in all, it was fun and I learned a little something. Which means, I want to go back so I can lean…

Hanging out at odd places…
I am definitely a „hanger oner.“ I hang onto to everything… old cards given to me, photos, clothes that are either worn out or do not fit… and people who I know are not good for my mental health. I cannot let go. And I do not know why. Trust me… it is not because…

#SwissSundayHike
Todd and I keep a post on social media where we talk about our hikes, show some photos, and try to offer our friends and family members back home a little taste of our adventures. I hope it is not taken by others as a brag when we do this. It started out as just…
