Totality didn’t go quite as planned, but the experience around it was every bit as magical. 🌑☀️

Elevated view over Cala Vadella Bay, with small boats scattered across the sheltered water, rocky tree-covered slopes on either side and hazy hills visible beyond the coast.

On the second day of our trip, we explored a potential observation spot for the total solar eclipse the following day. A lovely couple we befriended after renting…

Airport assistance came with an unexpected bonus for the aviation enthusiast in me. ✈️

Today, my wellness sanctuary is also a place to get refreshed. Speaking of yesterday’s mental state: Thank goodness, I figured out how to properly align the scope with…

A Vespera smart telescope standing in near-total darkness, its cylindrical body faintly visible and a pinkish-red illuminated ring glowing on the front.

The scope is awake again, just in time for a certain approaching celestial event. 😰

A paved path winds through a leafy, sunlit courtyard towards a cluster of buildings, framed by dense trees and shrubs on either side.

A forgotten appointment provided a reason to venture outside.

Too hot to venture outside, so the roof cladding became today’s subject.

A wide evening view over rooftops beneath a pale lavender-blue sky filled with streaky clouds. Faint pink tones linger near the horizon, while distant rain clouds appear to hang beyond the city, suggesting showers that never reached the foreground.q

Rain clouds gathered on the horizon but never reached Zurich, leaving only humid air and the hope that tomorrow might finally bring some relief.

An empty white plastic garden table surrounded by four mismatched chairs—three red and one white—stands on a patch of dry summer grass at dusk. Dark trees fill the background, while the bright tabletop catches the last remaining light, giving the otherwise quiet scene a slightly surreal appearance.

An empty garden table on a sweltering summer evening made me wonder whether anyone ever came outside to use it.

Nighttime view of a quiet residential path illuminated by a bright building entrance on the right. Most of the scene is cloaked in deep shadow, with trees and a handrail barely visible, creating an atmospheric contrast between light and darkness.

The shortening days are finally becoming noticeable. A simple trip to take out the recycling turned into a reminder that summer evenings are slowly giving way to longer nights—even if the heat still refuses to leave.

A lush Money Plant (Pilea peperomioides) with round, coin-shaped green leaves stands indoors near a window at night. The softly lit room and dark surroundings create a calm atmosphere on a quiet Swiss National Day.
