Last week, eight images from the project Protect our Glaciers were installed in five rooms of the breathtaking CERVO Moutain Resort. 

After 12 years without visiting the city, I finally had a chance to come back to NYC and re-live this inspiring hub of creation. Here are a few of my impressions and thoughts gathered during my stay.

In Switzerland, if you didn't study it, you are not considered part of the group of artists. What if you know the theory but can't practice it or put it into expression?

In Switzerland, if you didn't study it, you are not considered part of the group of artists. You will only be considered in such applications if you own a diploma. What if you know the theory but can't practice it or put it into expression? Are you still considered an artist?

A creative process cannot be forced, and various factors influence it. If more space were given to each individual's creative process, how would the corporate world look?

After 3,5 years without a fixed home and living a nomad life, in constant movement, between living in Hotels and housesitting, it is time again to start a new reality. A shift in the way of living and working.

Recently, I came across a brilliant article written by April Rinne on "Why You Should Build a "Career Portfolio" (Not a "Career Path")". I could highly identify myself with so many lines she wrote, nodding my head as I read the words. I have experienced a similar journey as she described.

Recently, at a social gathering, while explaining my career path (and thus also my entire lifestyle) over the last few years, someone asked: What was your most significant takeaway throughout this process? I had to ponder on that one. My answer eventually came quite clearly: the learnings and (mainly) unlearnings this journey has brought.

These "milestone" days (such as also Christmas, Birthdays, etc.) are usually expected to be spent accompanied by others - be it a partner, friends and/or family (or in the "best cases" a combination of all). This year was at least the 3rd time I chose to spend NYE alone. Yes, it was a choice.

Yet another year is coming to an end. And what a year. Here is a little retrospective of what has been in chronological order with some highlights. It all started in Brazil, and I was unsure where the journey would lead me. I couldn't have wished for a better one.

They share the courage to embrace the unknown, the resilience to weather storms, and the vision to manifest something from nothing. The canvas may differ—whether it be a blank page, a stage, a studio, or a boardroom—but the underlying principles of creation remain constant.

inside, the turmoil is real. And the more aware one is of these transformations, the more interesting it gets. The growing potential is limitless. With this start of a new week, and soon also the start of a new month, I, too, am stepping into a fresh beginning. 

In the evenings, we often sit at the table together to enjoy dinner, and that's usually when my 4-year-old nephew looks you in the eye with his blue rounded eyes and pops the question full of curiosity: "What's your highlight?" (with a very Australian accent). 

Especially when travelling, it is one of the first questions you ask or are asked - a question that might seem straightforward for many, but it is far from it for me. It is a complex question, and the ones asking probably don’t realise all the thoughts that go through my mind when it pops.

You'll find yourself again in places you've been before, in a similar situation you've experienced at another time of your life, but not entirely. Places of transformation - geographical locations pivotal for developing the next version of myself.

After living seven weeks in Nusa Penida, an island part of Bali, but located 30 minutes away with the boat from the main island, it was time to leave. During the past 3 years, while having a nomad lifestyle, this is the most at home I've felt since, and the advice of "leaving on a high" has made the move easier.

I started writing this text upon my arrival, and now a month has already passed since that day. Time has flown. Here, I share a little about what brought me to this piece of paradise and my so-far takeaways from this beautiful journey.

A thunderstorm came together with my arrival at one of the spots to get the bus to the beginning of the hike - lightning, thunder, and a lot of water. The voice that wanted me to stay home came again, saying I should get the first train to go back. I prevailed.
