(inner) summer - Lake Geneva, Geneva

“Summer, ovulation: a fresh, energised time where I’m ready to take on the world.

After a 9-5 job, I don’t just go straight home like I usually do during this phase. Instead, I’m motivated to get things done, resolving tasks, exploring, and making the most of the evening.

Swimming has become a huge part of this routine, especially since moving to Geneva. It’s my way to jump in, literally and figuratively, and express myself outside the structure of work.

There’s something about transitioning from after-work attire to swim gear that feels symbolic: shedding the day’s expectations and diving into something that’s purely mine. It’s not just about the water; it’s about reclaiming time and energy for myself.”
