A year ago, I launched this blog as an idle outlet for my thoughts and ideas. As sprinkles of genuine attractiveness you will find cute photos of our dog Sherlock. It is a nod to the internet: puppies always sell!

Despite all hiccups, I am happy to report, that it did indeed help me with my original plan: after a very long hiatus, I got back to writing and finished the draft to my second novel. And more importantly, my posts help me finding clarity in the many questions that arise in daily life. If any of you find anything useful on these pages, I would indeed be as happy as puppy!

Exploring the World on Butterfly Wings
Who doesn’t love to escape the routines of everyday life? Wouldn’t it be great, to once in a while grow wings and fly? I love exploring, to venture out to expand my view on life, freshen my perspective, gain glimpses into other worlds, big or small. Last night, in the insect collection of the ETH Read more
