For more sleep and more sunshine

I´m often wondering why not more people choose to work part time, no matter if they have small children to take care of or not. No, I definitely don´t want to proclaim a society where only the women stay at home taking care of the children (and the man!), but about the possibility for anyone to have one more day off per week. You can maybe not afford a big house or a fancy car if you do so, but you get another kind of freedom, more sleep, more sunshine or more of whatever you want. I am so thankful for my days off, and this is how I spent this February Thursday.



To sleep as long as you want is one of the biggest luxuries for me when I have a day off. I do not dare to tell you how long I usually sleep, but let´s put it like this: when I wake up, then I have the prefect opportunity to choose between breakfast and lunch. I always choose breakfast, no matter what time it is, since that´s my clear favorite meal. Today, I made myself a smoothie with a taste of summer, and a cappuccino and then I had some time for strolling around in my sweet home until it was time to meet up with two creative friends for lunch. 

The sun was shining and we could have this year´s first outdoor lunch. Thank you for that, dear February. 

I walked the narrow streets of Zurich…

...passed by a mad dog...

 ...and some birds enjoying the view...

…of the lake and the mountains. 

I continued to a picture exhibition on seven floors...

...before I went to some friends´ place for dinner. This sweet animal joined me for my dessert...

..and as all days should, this Thursday ended with a bedtime story, with a happy end.
