      Only 20 minutes a week for a complete muscle worko Only 20 minutes a week for a complete muscle workout—how is that even possible? 💪 With the revolutionary @tomfit_gesundheitstraining equipment, powered by AI, you can even measure your life expectancy based on your muscles. Intrigued? I had to try it myself! If you're in Zurich, head to tomfit.com to try it for free. And for my full review, check out askthemonsters.com. Swipe to the end to see my life expectancy, and when I will start to have some pain. Big thanks to Julian, my coach for the day, who called this the real 'sound of love'!

      📏Do you know what tapering is? 🏆Because I' 📏Do you know what tapering is? 🏆Because I'm the world champion of it! 🛀Tapering means reducing your training load before a big event—like my 32th marathon, the Zürich marathon next Sunday. 🫖 It helps your body recover while maintaining peak performance. For me, it means eating, sleeping, drinking water, herbal tea, no stress, not too much sport. 🛜On top of that, I'm extending my internet detox to last all of Monday and Tuesday morning. No fast dopamine from news or social media—just calm. Studies show that unplugging boosts brainpower and clarity. 🧠 Next stop: Zürich Marathon. Tapered, detoxed, and ready to show the pavement who's boss. Stay tuned for the drama! 😅 #TaperTime #ZurichMarathon Zurich marathon | marathon prep | marathon preparation | marathon tips | tapering | Zürich | Zuerich marathon | run Zürich | maratona di Zurigo

      Friendship is more important than handbags 😁🥰 When we returned home from Korea, we found a sad surprise: our house has been burglarized. I told Yvonne of @funkyforty, also because I felt maybe it was my fault, since I had shown on Instagram that we were away. I was upset and thought I should close my account, and wanted to warn her not to show too much on stories. Soon later, Yvonne came to my door with some red roses. I think I almost kicked her out, as I was a bit confused by the events 😅 Yesterday Yvonne gave me coffee and chocolate, took these nice pictures in front of a bright painting she painted herself, and she really lifted me up. Thank you Yvonne! In the second photo, my favorite bracelet. I bought it at age 17, in Italy, with the money I saved from working the whole summer. The bracelet survived 5 burglaries. The thieves preferred to get my handbags 👜. In the last slide, a flip. When I do that, it means the good energy is back !

      I had no idea that Seoul has its very own version I had no idea that Seoul has its very own version of a mini Great Wall of China—I just had to hike it! The wall stretches 18 km around the modern city, with its oldest sections dating back to the 1300s, and features eight majestic city gates. The breathtaking views from every angle made all the effort worth it (though the tempting coffee shops along the way didn’t hurt either!). The other hikers were quite entertaining—completely geared up, serious about sun protection, and using the most fascinating gadgets. One had me thinking it was a charging station, but it turned out to be something entirely different. Watch till the end to see what it was! What a fabulous day☀️ Seoul City Wall Trail Hanyangdoseong Seoul #korea #visitseoul #swisstravelblogger
