The Inconvenience of a Late Train With a Bike — Jul 31, 2025Yesterday I went for an evening bike ride in Geneva and I chose to take the train home, rather than cycle.

I am currently toying with the idea of suggesting that I pick up some people in Nyon and others in Fourmi, before going to Gruyère.... -
Walking from Bex to Aigle — May 6, 2024Yesterday I caught a train from Nyon to Bex without the need to change from one train to another. In the process I had an opportunity to re-acclimate myself to being surrounded by others, indoors, without a mask. Luckily the wagon wasn’t too crowded so I wasn’t overcome with the desire to mask....
