My dream was always to become a veterinarian because I like animals very much. As I didn't want to study, however, that wasn't a professional perspective.

I adopted a dog from the animal shelter in August 2021. He is a mixed breed, 5 years old and his name is Jago. Before that I already had a Malinois dog who reached the age of 15. A dog enriches my life, I can't imagine a time without a dog. I have to go out in all weathers, but I stay sporty, and we grow into a team over time. Dogs sense our "vibrations" very precisely when we are stressed or sad. And we can learn a lot from dogs. For example, to learn to live in the moment and not in the past or in the future. We can also learn to have better self-control, using dog training as an example. Because dog training would actually be so easy, only we humans fail at it time and time again because we are not being consistent.

I would like to meet Reinhold Messner on one occasion. As I love mountains and go to the mountains a lot myself, that would certainly be very interesting. I prefer to hike in Ticino, but also in all other mountain regions in Switzerland. I like to do alpine tours, but I'm not a mountaineer in that sense. For example, on a ski tour we were on the Weisshorn in the canton of Valais. We did not reach the summit at 4,505 metres, but we did get up to 3,500 metres. I really reached my limit at that time, but it was still great. What I particularly like about the mountains is that they radiate a lot of peace and it feels great to reach the summit and to be able to enjoy the wonderful view from there.

Facebook and Instagram are my favourites. But I do not have a favourite app.

Hmm, I'll have to think about that ... my dog makes me laugh every day.
