There’s always something to complain about: Let’s Get Candid

With COVID being around for quite some time now (more than a year), I pondered upon how life has changed since then and thought it'd be nice to share my candid thoughts and snippets from my life. Read on because I'm sure this one is going to be somewhat relatable for all the working professionals, [...]

Post COVID-19 recovery and care

During the month of May, I spoke about my COVID-19 journey very openly on the blog with the hope that people benefit from the experience – symptoms to watch out for, general medication that I took, supplements, things that worked, mental health, lessons I learnt, and more.

6 Lessons that I learnt from my COVID-19 journey

Thank you for the overwhelming amount of wishes and blessings over the past few weeks; I am still low on energy but it’s great to be back – back to work, back on Instagram, back on the blog, back to taking walks, back to drinking chai, back to living an ordinary life despite extraordinary circumstances.

The Story behind My Swiss Story 🇨🇭
Impressions from yesterday's "Coffee-with-a-purpose" ☕ meet... yea it was online 👩‍💻 and 5 cool women business owners 💁‍♀️ did short presentations of who they are, how did they decide to do what they do and what they were looking for.
Back in 2017, when I was struggling to find a job in 🇨🇭, the fact that I was blogging and creating content was probably the most soothing factor in my life. And btw this struggle was a big shock - I had worked in the tech industry for 12 years or so...and was at a decent point in my career when we moved. But the usual auto response rejection which needed translation (😉), wasn't the easiest on my ego and I think the instant gratification via social media provided a bandage solution.

Yesterday we visited the German 🇩🇪 town of Vogtsburg which is around a 50 minute drive from Basel. Unfortunately, I don't see a public transport route to the town on the map and that could be one of the reasons for it being untouched, hidden, and pristine. 😉 I am kidding - the wineries 🍷 were swarming with people. 🥂

Our third day, the day we were supposed to head back started on a better note - I slept well and on days that I sleep well, I can pretty much conquer the world. 💪🙈
Our second day, was spent exploring the other villages. From Laussane we went to the beautiful village of Chexbres and had lunch at another very lovely restaurant, Bidlingmyer, which offers great views and is not the most expensive. 💖😋👌🌊
We took advantage of the bridge weekend, and travelled to the French part of Switzerland this time around. After being in Switzerland 🇨🇭 for the past 6 years, these are not our FIRSTs but I can definitely call these places our #familyfavourites ❤
