🇨🇭 Swimming in the Most Beautiful Lake of Switzerland


Good afternoon fellow travel lovers!

Yesterday I promised a story about our hike to Oeschinensee, so here it is.

Initially, we planned to hike from the town of Kandersteg to the 150-meter higher town of Oeschinen and then move on to hike around the lake.

But since it's around 30 degrees Celsius out here (86F) we decided to take the cable car. 🚠

Within 5 minutes we were on top and ready to walk towards the most beautiful lake I've ever seen.

We had a lot of speculation about whether this lake would be as beautiful as it was in the Instagram pictures we saw all year. It turned out to be as good as we thought it would be. Especially when we got higher and the view got better.

But first, we had to go for a swim.

It was so cold. And even though I love getting cold showers and being in the cold in general, I had to get used to the temperatures of this lake.

Like, we're in the middle of summer and that water was cold.

But that didn't stop us of course.

We got there early so there weren't a lot of people around on the *beach* which wasn't really a beach; more a place with stones and pebbles that hurt your feet.

Look at this view 👇

Isn't that the best place to start your day?

We continued our journey...

After being in the water for a while we dried up in the sun and continued our journey. We got back on the road and aimed for the central viewing point that Oeschinensee is known for.

But, being almost up there we noticed how the road was just not accessible for people with sneakers. Not that much.

That photo wasn't edited, it's really that blue.

Tomorrow we're leaving this beautiful town and going for a boat trip to Thunersee.

See you tomorrow, we're excited and I hope you're looking forward to my report ;)

Workaholic culture makes me sick. If you feel the same, you should stick around this newsletter. I see this in older generations a lot: people tend to stimulate you to have a "real job". Whatever that means. Having an online business, or just being a freelancer isn't a real job according to them. They can't see the potential. They'd rather work themselves to death and don't take care of their mental health. And I can't even blame them. It's heavily ingrained in our culture. The general idea...

My mind is stuck. The summer is usually a time when you get happy and do the greatest things. But afterward, it's usually a difficult time. I've already written a newsletter about the "past-summer-dip", so I'm not doing that again. This newsletter is about being out of inspiration, and motivation, and not knowing where you stand in life. This is the Rewire Yourself Newsletter for 22 September 2023. Right before the summer started I was all motivated. Having free time made me think that I...
