Climbing / Bouldering / Alpenist
Away from the keyboard, my heart finds solace in the majestic embrace of mountains and the exhilarating world of
bouldering. The mountains, with their awe-inspiring landscapes and breathtaking views, offer me a sanctuary in nature.
What captivates me most is the inherent challenge of ascending these peaks, requiring not just physical strength but a
keen ability to assess risks judiciously. It's a thrilling dance with nature's forces, a pursuit that fuels my sense of
adventure.
In the realm of bouldering, I discover a different kind of challenge—one that's as much mental as it is physical. The
joy lies in solving intricate "problems" posed by the boulders, where strength alone isn't the sole answer. It's a
fascinating interplay of understanding my body type, leveraging my strengths, and embracing an iterative process to
conquer each puzzle. Bouldering, for me, is a journey of self-discovery and perseverance, where the reward isn't just
reaching the top but in the intricate problem-solving process that gets me there.
Cyling
I find immense joy in the rhythmic cadence of road biking—a pursuit that encapsulates both local exploration and far-flung
adventures. Powered solely by the strength of my legs, each pedal stroke becomes a journey of discovery, unveiling
hidden gems in familiar surroundings and uncharted territories alike. There's a unique thrill in navigating the winding
roads, feeling the wind caress my face, and immersing myself in the landscapes that unfold with each passing mile.

Cooking & Backing (mostly vegan)
In my culinary pursuits, I embark on a flavorful journey centered around cooking and baking, with a predominant focus on
crafting delicious and wholesome vegan fare. Motivated by a desire to create food that is not only a treat for the taste
buds but also nourishing for the body, my kitchen becomes a canvas for plant-based culinary experiments. The choice of a
vegan lifestyle stems from a broader commitment to minimizing harm and reducing suffering for all beings on our planet.
Each dish is a testament to the belief that cruelty-free living can be a delectable and fulfilling way of life. As I
delve into the world of vegan cooking, I discover the boundless creativity that comes with transforming simple,
plant-derived ingredients into culinary masterpieces that not only satisfy the palate but also contribute to a more
compassionate and sustainable existence. Follow the happy bunny at Cafe Tobi
