About me
Looking back happily on my now grown-up children, I occasionally explore “our crazy ball called Earth” on foot, by bike or sometimes by car. I have no expectations of you. I appreciate a dialogue or the narration of episodes in your life just as much as, for example, a silent evening. It would be great if I could accommodate you too; From May to the beginning of October I often stay in a caravan, which is parked on a natural lake in the agglomeration of the city of Zurich,

About Me
I am on a 3 months break from my work as a primary teacher and solo traveling for the first time! I am a bit nervous but also very excited about it. I am very much into hiking, Yoga and all things outdoors that involve movement and being in nature. I also love cooking and enjoy eating good food! I am also a big coffee lover. I love meeting new people and exchanging ideas and values. As a feminist, I think it is so imporant that us women connect and support eachother as much as we can 💜🌞.

Couple travel experience
Clean and transport was efficient. It is safe for women solo travelers. It's a bit pricey but if you book early it is affordable. The food was delicious. We stayed in 25 hours hotel, there are Restaurant nearby and tram station in front of the hotel. It isn't busy during public holidays, many businesses don't operate during public holiday.
Posted: May 29, 2023Experienced: November, 2022Solo travel experience
Things to do: - Wander through Old Town - Have a drink on a rooftop - See the Giacometti Frescoes - Get an epic view of the city from Lindenplatz or Polybahnterrasse - Visit China Garden, Arboretum and Old Botanical Garden - Swim in the lake or along the Limmat River Safety: I felt safe and it was easy to navigate. Recommendations: Zurich is nice, but not spectacular.
Posted: September 16, 2022Solo travel experience
Things to do: - Explore the old Town - Go swimming in the lake - Take a day trip to Lucerne - Visit the Chinese Gardens - Visit the Botanical Gardens Safety: It's quite safe. Recommendations: Zurich is nice but it’s really more of a 'living city' rather than a place where you see things.
