  • The Plan: Recalibrate along the way. Milestones: Sleep longer (at least until sunrise), forget business, focus on beauty and add relaxed action along the way. More music, less thinking. Ommh…

  • Hector (Van-Perspective): “People are strange… All this back and forth, the months of nothingness and then immediate action – hope they know what they are doing. At least the wellness treatment with a new toothed belt, bright eyes and a new rear battery is well-planned. Guess it will make me look 10 years younger! Good…

  • Weeks before departure, Hector carries a big smile on his face. Spreading good vibes, he tells stories about how he will enjoy champagne with the girls soon.

  • Merry Christmas, happy holidays and a relaxed & wonderful start into 2022! And remember: Above all, life is full of chances.

  • December… Approaching Christmas and Lockdown threats, skies are grey and the mood… is splendid once we reach Spitzingsee, where rain turns into snow.
