Alpine Diaries: Bienvenue en Suisse!

Bonjour, Namaste & Hello!

I know, I haven’t been fair in not writing about Switzerland while living in Switzerland. Guilty as charged!

But been working on it for some time now and letting the ideas incubate. I did not want to write an unjust solitary post. Because living here is an experience that grows, develops, modifies and replenishes itself and the one living it.

Since writing, a lot like baking, is about the best ingredients in carefully measured proportions and letting them (ideas) bake till the right time and till a satisfying ‘baking’ aroma fills the house and with a presentation to match. So I had been holding on to the virtue called Patience!

Proportion, precision and patience. That’s what it is about. Both baking & writing. Which I do achieve all right sometimes but other times, most times, they are half baked or over done or seemingly alright but still leaving me with a feeling of having missed something, in there. And I have little choice but to get it past the throat and move on to the next one.

I have a feeling it’s going to be a lot like baking and there’s going to be a lot of baking. What makes the situation even more delicate is the fact that I’m treating this like a ‘special occasion cake’ that despite gathering all the ingredients, I feel a little hesitant to get on with.

(With all this talk of baking I have no intentions, however far fetched, to point you not-so-subtly, towards my baking skills. Well, I have next to none. I have baked a few times and every time I’ve missed having a dog. You get the idea.)

Here’s how I plan to recoup myself, by writing a regular Alpine Diary. Regular being the key word here. I’ll be filling this Alpine Diary with musings on my life-in-musings and life-in-travel in Switzerland.

 

So are you on board? If not yet then I’ll leave you with some pictures to find conviction in!
