Arosa Run/Walk

I am way behind in posting this, but last month Dan and I went to Graubünden, a canton on the other side of the country, to see some snow and mountains. Not that we had to cross the country to see snow and mountains. But we were here for a race!

Hiking at Giw (Visp)

Slowly I am catching up on my postings! Two weeks ago Dan and I took a hike in the Alps in probably the best weather possible. Fantastic views and colors blessed us for the entire day. Come along for the hike – without even raising your pulse 🙂

Walensee in the Autumn

Now that I have finished the post for Bangkok/Bhutan, I can focus on a couple of things I’ve done since my return to Switzerland. Below is a day ride to the Walensee area, the mountains just southeast of Zürich – and really close to Lichtenstein.

Beautiful Bhutan

I am finally getting this adventure down in ones and zeros! I caught a nasty cold on the flight home, so I haven’t been up to doing much at all lately. However, I am now feeling better (not 100%, but getting there) and the words are slowly filling the page.

The first page is not, however, about Bhutan. Before getting there we had to go through Bangkok. I tried to paint it in a good light but I just couldn’t do it. To those of you who love this city, I apologize. To everyone else, I present to you: my own view of Bangkok.

Hiking to the Surreal

Ever on our quest to hike as much as possible, Dan and I took a trip to the mountains to explore one of Switzerland’s more popular Alpine hikes.

Hiking in the Clouds

Dan promised that there wouldn’t be rain until 4 o’clock. Dan was wrong. Follow along anyway and enjoy the sights and sounds of Swiss cows!

Hiking to Eptingen

“A short hike” turns into five hours as Dan and I meander through some beautiful landscape in the Jura Mountains.

Rhine Falls – success!

I made it to the falls!!! Without motorcycles with but our feet, Dan and I took the train to Schaffhausen to explore the area around the falls and follow the river downstream for a while. We had fantastic weather and the water was flowing fast and high!
