Oh my gosh, I’m so nostalgic… I’ve literally had the best time. I mean it was beautiful, the mountain sightings were breathtaking ! My best friend took me to see some amazing things I will never forget. The air was so pure up there, it was delightful to feel connected to nature like this, and appreciate its wonders.
I’m hoping I can go to her again soon, I know she’ll come visit me in Paris, but I want another Swiss road trip ! Let’s pray that my recovery speeds up and well 🙏
I was in Switzerland, visiting my bestie ❤️ since I can’t travel anywhere at the moment, let me at least share some good memories ! Here we are taking a stroll around Zürich, love this city. There’s swans in the lake, boat trips, and I love walking in the old town area, it feels quite medieval.
There’s also some quirky shops like for vintage designs, a witch store, analog photography (the coolest) etc… and some cool places to have a little snack & coffee, like Sprüngli which I go to every time I’m in town.
I wish I could write out all those feelings that I have bottled up inside of me, but in truth it does hurt to say things the way they are.
And it’s a terrible feeling, because we all probably wish to be happily free from anything that ties us down. Being able to express yourself is liberating. I haven’t managed that properly yet, but I’m working on it.
It definitely goes hand in hand with my recovery process. This healing journey that I’m on, and how my mental health is affected through that. It’s an every day struggle to say the least, and it’s a fight… but it’s okay, I’m a warrior. And I’m damn good at fighting for myself.
So I’ll trust the process and surrender to positivity.
I guess I’m finally ready to talk about what I have…
Been dealing with health issues for the past couple of years, and was not properly diagnosed until recently. The diagnosis was really helpful in a way, because I could begin proper treatment.
Unfortunately it’s a bit late, my body has been in crisis mode since September ’22. At this point for the treatment to kick in, it takes a while. I’ve been home basically since then, you can’t imagine all the things someone can go through dealing with that. It’s like another confinement, with added pain. So that’s great.
For that reason, and because I couldn’t find the necessary ressources for myself online, I decided to tackle on a little finite online project. I’m creating an instagram account I titled @immunediseases.
So I will be sharing anything health, wellness, cooking, fitness, and self-care related there. Because my blog is more for photography, and I don’t want to mix that here. Plus, as I said it’s a finite project, once I babbled on everything I have on this topic, I’ll just leave it be : hopefully by then I will be healed, and able to start working on the actual projects I’ve been dreaming of.
But in the meantime, I’m not gonna sit around and not even share what I’ve learned or experienced through my own issues.
If you are unfortunately like me, living with autoimmune diseases, or know someone etc… go and take a look at my new instagram. I’ll start posting there from next Monday. You can ask me any questions there, regarding those topics. It’s going to be a safe place for those matters. xoxox
A soft summer breeze is blowing, I’m hearing the leaves tickling each other and giggling with a distinct whistling, as if they are actually little human beings. Everything is alive in this forest, and I myself am part of it. I’m as human as the centenary tree in the middle of it all. I’m part of everything in this place, as much as they’re part of me.
My elvish skin is nourished by the sun rays, just like the flowers, and I blossom throughout the year in the same manner. I feel more connected to the ground I walk on, than the weird city lights I see being built in the far away. I wish they’ll stay that way. We don’t need artificial anything here, it’s already so full of life.
