Ultimate Guide to Andermatt- Perfect for the long weekend, Summer and Winter Time. My tips for the best stay. Andermatt is definitely a hidden gem in the Swiss Alps. I visited it for the first time in winter 2022 while on a press trip to Chedi Andermatt and I immediately fell in love with this charming little town that is such a great ski resort. In winter the whole village is covered in white powder and it has the largest amount of snow in Switzerland. So the truth is that Andermatt is a little Winter Paradise.
Llaollao Geneva is one of my favourite dessert places destination. It’s just perfect on the go. I like to step into one of their boutiques when running errands in town or shopping in La Praille or Balexert.

Luxury Picnic – what does it actually mean? It’s al fresco dining with a partner, friends, family etc, but with beautiful details and delicious food. To call a picnic luxury there is more preparation involved, details that I thought out, beautiful setting, food, decoration details and also time. What I mean by this is that time nowadays is a luxury so to fully create this luxury atmosphere it has to be savour and eaten slowly, enjoyed and not rushed. I would also associate this with words like stylish, chic, romantic, and relaxing. Is there anything more pleasant or romantic than an impromptu al fresco dining with people you love? Creating this beautiful atmosphere can be a beautiful activity that your loved ones will appreciate. You can throw that blanket down or order a company that will set up everything for you. Lush green grass, sandy beach, delicious food, a bottle of bubbly. Laughter, the board games, chatting, reading, sun on the face and birds singing in the background. Is it all a luxury? There are some characteristics of the ideal luxury picnic and I will explain them all to you in my short article. Without further ado let’s dive in.

The 75th Cannes Film Festival finished last week. I think we all had a dose of excitement by watching stars appearing on the red carpet. For most people, this festival is a dream. Luckily for me this year I could return to Cannes and see it with my own eyes. And what did I notice? This year has been buzzing with energy, many screenings, events and people from all over the world. It was nice to see Cannes being back to its usual festival extravaganza. Seeing amazingly dressed women and men too.
