  • It might sound silly, but different terrains tend to be „interesting“. I also feel it has an impact on how i walk and how i stand - so actually back problems and (minor) aches are either easier or gone.

    I, too, travel the alps, nock mountains, katschberg mountain, Dachstein etc. I totally wear bulky hiking shoes in the mountains, though, as you definitely want the protection for your foot and ankles. However, i more often than not even hike easy trails in those barefoot shoes. I guess i just am used to it so much that those protective shoes feel too heavy and bulky, even if the bedding is comfortable.

    But fir the day to day footwear you have to wear necessarily I almost always choose barefoot shoes over the few remaining normal ones. I will keep one set business shoes, one pair of winter boots and my mountain equipment, everything else will be gone quite soon.


  • I totally think it is not a thing. Just two random ignorant fools doing it (maybe, and maybe not).

    Barefoot shoes are a thing though, with a very thin sole and a very direkt Response to ground texture. I have a small collection of these and i am a big fan of them. However, if i want to go completely barefoot (or simply forget my shoes again), i just don’t Wasser shoes.














  • Probably no one you know, but I visited a bakery in port hardy (Vancouver Island), and the gut behind the counter was super sweet and welcoming. While she was serving me she got called from her boss and she excused herself with tears in her eyes „sorry, I have to response immediately, she is gonna yell at me again“.

    I still want to hug her. Still want to show her how a professional boss would treat her. Give her a nice job and get her out of this worker’s hellhole.

    The breakfast was great, though.






  • I didn’t like rice. A food I had to eat to please my wife that she can have rice. Like once a month

    Then she got a rice cooker. A cheap one. Good rice, I started accepting it better. Like, okay, every two weeks is okay. Maybe one and a half.

    Then she got a good one. I mean, medium price range, like between 100 and 150€. I demand! rice one a week! Okay, I did some research and got good rice as well. But oh my gosh. This is such a difference.

    And it helps so much with adhd as well - you can put in the rice and forget it an hour longer as planned and it is still great, warm and delicious. Just a game changer when it comes to rice.
