Switzerland is an absolutely fab country. Very beautiful, very sunny, cozy and happy. Looks like it’s always a sunshine here and the grass is green. It’s just another Universe! Even what concerns people. I haven’t ever yet seen a person being so happy while talking to conductor:)
Every second with a switched off camera here is a waste of time. So I managed to spend all the card in ours:) But how on Earth could I have missed that wonderful window views?
Many people noticed my abs in this post. After a New Year I really focused on getting fit and healthy and here are the first results:) You know, I’m that kind of girl, easily gaining weight. If you don’t, you were just trapped by Alesha’s photo angles:) But how on Earth can you continue on doing sports and eating properly while in a journey? That was the first time I actually felt I could handle it without overeating or feeling hungry and sorry for the lack of fitness.
Don’t forget to choose the maximum quality for this video!
I quite understand, why Carlton hotel in St.Moritz has invited us in this short period of winter low season right in between Christmas with the traditional polo on ice that followed, and an epic gastro fest with the Michelin stars chiefs coming from all over the world ahead. During this events it’s just impossible to find a free room there:)
But it would be wrong to decide there is nothing to do during the low season. Except for riding, of course:) First of all, St.Moritz is a worth visiting place for the shopping fans (what you can easily notice in my video) and secondly they are turning 150 years this year, so there are always some kind of celebrations!
Please, do not forget to choose the best quality!
So, my dears, do you still manage to follow me – from Switzerland to Israel and back?:) Just a quick remind: you can always find latest photos in my Instagram: @thestylejungle_marieclaireru. There is very sunny there right now, so if you want to switch conditions, you are warmly welcomed to watch this winter video from the wonderful Arosa.
You can’t even imagine how jealous I was, when my colleague went to Israel desert for a yoga! Most of all I was jealous of the “Israel” part, cause this country totallyblew my mind away last spring with its outstanding authentiсity, incredibly wonderful nature and, it goes without saying, delicious food. So I just couldn’t believe my eyes when suddenly received an invitation to spend a week here from the IsraelMinistry of Tourism. All I wanted to do that moment – is immediately jump into the plane and leave everything behind! But a long month of waiting and anticipation past before I got final approval from them. Seems like my strong anticipation ruined all my plans for strong emotions here, so during my first day in Jerusalem I was really calm and completely un-emotional.
But that wascertainly just the beginning:) And all the best was kept for the dessert. Imean, for lunch, which we had in a wonderful local restaurant MachneYuda (or “Yuda’s Camp”), where I dived into an atmosphere of bright colors, feelings and tastes, I needed!
There should have been surely a story behind the 5-star hotel in a world famous ski resort, built in 1913 and richly decorated, don’t you think? And there is such a story in Carlton, situated in St.Moritz.This legend is being strongly kept and cultivated for many years here already. Despite the irony of the heads, despite the fully renovation under the leadership of Carlo Rampazzi in 2006-2007 years, despite the fact, that there are only 5 years between the year this building appeared and the death of Nikolay the II, for whom it according to the legend was made..
So how does the tsar residence looks today? I’m gonna show you!
That is how handsome the life in Switzerland can be! Well, not for everybody, of course, but for those who live and work in Arosa, that is 3 hours by train away from Zurich and 1 700 meters above the sea level (all the anders, I bet, do not complain as well). I was lucky to visit this place thanks to the invitation of the Tschuggen Grand Hotel. This journey had completely changed my opinion about the winter holidays. Honestly, I was always a type of person, preferring summer beaches to snowy mountains ( really feel like having enough snow for half a year here in Moscow). Th first surprise I discovered was that actually it’s not really cold in mountains. I even got tanned:) So it was an absolutely new way to have rest and an incredible enjoyment. .
After we arrived, I had a little time for a walk through the city and the next day we went to the mountains, so today I’m going to show you some photos of the wonderful views I managed to do those days.
When I’m saying I’m in love with food I literally mean it. Alesha sometimes thinks I have an addiction, like from drugs:) ‘m one of those eating tasty dish till the end even if they are about to burst.
And because of that we could have never skipped an invitation from London restaurant CUT for a dinner, despite the fact we were so tired that day that only wanted to stay in room and lie on a bad. Despite even the fact I don’t eat meat and CUT is a steakhouse:)
What an impatient and responsible friends I have! A couple of days ago I promised to show you my London outfit and you kept reminding all this days! You making me feel ashamed:) But honestly I was so eager to show you this photos myself, because they are so sunny and warm! Hope they will make you feel a little better and warmer today!
