One year of weekly blogging turned into 104 posts.
From bike adventures and trail runs to sauna sessions and personal growth, 2025 was a year of writing and reflection.

I just published a recap on “The Digital Sweat Lodge.”

Happy Runners after the Tegernsee Lauf 2025 - looks foggy on the image, but large parts have been beautifully sunny. Epic views of Lake Tegernsee, cheering crowds, plus I followed up with #sauna at Monte Mare Tegernsee - epic is what describes it best. #running #bavaria

My dad used to have to change money and get checked at the border just to visit France. Now? I just bike across the Alps. It's a small thing, but it's a big deal. New blog post on why I'm feeling more European than ever, thanks to the EU.
