296/356: Botanical Garden

A nice change of pace

It was a sunny and warm sunday so I decided to go for a stroll. Once I was ready to head out, I decided to go to the botanical garden. I had never been there and thought it would be a nice change from my usual blogging. You know, flowers and stuff.

The garden was actually bigger than I had first thought. Also was surprised how many flowers were already blooming. It was really nice to listen to some music and just walk around aimlessly. I would definitely recommend couchsurfers to there if they get bored with Bern (it happens).

37/356: Walking Home

On today's to do list was a long walk. During the afternoon I decided to take advantage of the nice weather and walk home from work. I have thought about this for some days now and prepared accordingly this morning. The walk was about 7 km through woods and the city. I walked at an easy pace and it probably took me about two hours to do.

I really enjoyed the first part that took me past some fields and through a nice wood. The best part was when a deer jumped out of the Underwood just in front of me and sprinted across the path. Mini heart attack right there. Made me smile though. I might actually do this walk again. Maybe not the whole way but the part through to wood. Might evening go running there during lunch breaks.. let's see.

Switzerland really is a beautiful place.
