Hotel Solvie: A Birthday Escape in the Heart of South Tyrol
07.08.2025
Spending a few days (and my birthday) at Hotel Solvie (part of the Winklerhotels family) felt like hitting pause on the world. Nestled in the heart of South Tyrol, this elegant and modern retreat offers everything your body and mind crave: calm, comfort, and a touch of indulgence. From the moment you step in, there’s this warm, luxurious stillness. The design is very modern and natural, blending alpine charm with clean, modern lines. The real highlight? The spa. Long, slow afternoons were...
Living the Magic of the Tour de France Femmes – Stage 4: Saumur to Poitiers
31.07.2025
As part of the Škoda Hospitality Programme, I had the chance to experience the 4th stage of the Tour de France Femme — a flat but lively 128 km route from Saumur to Poitiers — not only from the sidelines, but quite literally in the saddle. It was so much more than just a stage on the map. For me (and the other participants) it was two days of unforgettable behind-the-scenes moments, inspiring conversations, and a chance to live and breathe the race from the inside. One highlight of the...

L’Étape du Tour de France (130km/4.500d+)
26.07.2025
Crossing the finish line of L’Étape du Tour de France after 7 hours and 33 minutes in the saddle was definitely a moment I’ll never forget. This legendary event, where amateur cyclists get the rare chance to ride a full mountain stage (Albertville to La Plagne - 130km/4.500d+) of the Tour de France under race-day conditions, was as tough as it was exhilarating. After intense preparation I felt ready for this challenge and my partner Škoda sent me off to France. Surrounded by thousands of...
5k a day 145/365 - Womens Run in Vienna
25.05.2025
Running 5K is part of my daily routine since almost half a year now—something I do almost without thinking, a moment to clear my head, breathe, and reset. But standing at the start line of the *Wiener Frauenlauf 5K* felt completely different. Running alongside so many inspiring women, cheered on by strangers and each other, and crossing that finish line with a huge smile—it reminded me why I love running in the first place. It wasn’t about pace or performance, it was about being part of...

A Weekend Escape to Como Castello del Nero
17.05.2025
Four days at Como Castello del Nero felt like stepping into a Tuscan dream. The historic charm of this 12th-century castle combined with modern luxury made it the perfect escape. Mornings started on the beautiful breakfast terrace, where the view over vineyards and olive groves set the tone for the day. As I’m currently training for L’Étape du Tour de France, I couldn’t wait to explore the area on two wheels and spend some time on my bike. Whether heading toward Chianti, Val d’Elsa or...
My Road to L’Étape du Tour with Škoda
10.05.2025
This year, I’m taking on my biggest cycling challenge yet: riding L’Étape du Tour de France 2025 — and I couldn’t be more excited (and nervous)! As a beginner cyclist, this feels like diving into the deep end, but I’m doing it with the amazing support of my partner Škoda, and that makes all the difference. L’Étape is 131 km through the French Alps with over 4,500 meters of elevation gain, including legendary climbs like Col du Pré and La Plagne. It’s a Tour de France stage,...

Škoda x Milan Design Week 2025: Where Art Meets Innovation
14.04.2025
During Milan Design Week, I had the chance to return to my student-city and to experience the stunning Škoda exhibition at the Padiglione di Arte Contemporanea. The star of the show was the all-new Škoda Elroq RS, making its physical debut and showcasing the brand’s fresh Modern Solid design language—sleek, bold, and forward-thinking. What made the space unforgettable were the art installations by Italian sculptor Marcantonio, who brought the exhibition to life through playful and...
Cycling Through Mallorca with Mills & Honey: The Next Four Days
18.03.2025
After an incredible start to our Mallorca cycling adventure, the next four days brought even more stunning climbs, unforgettable descents, and a little bit of rain—but nothing could dampen the experience. :) Day 4: Conquering Sa Calobra in the Rain (65km / Climbing: 1845m+) This was a day we won’t forget. We started by riding from Pollença into the mountains, taking on the Coll de Femenia (7km at 5.5%), a perfect warm-up for the day. Some rolling terrain took us past Lluc Monastery before...

Cycling Through Mallorca with Mills & Honey: The First Three Days
16.03.2025
February called for a cycling adventure, and what better way to kick off the year than by taking on the stunning roads of Mallorca? With the Tramuntana mountains, picturesque coastlines, and dreamy winding roads, the island is a cyclist's paradise—and I was ready to soak it all in again (I’ve been there in March 2024 and totally loved it). Once again Mills & Honey was my partner for my time on the island and Alfonso and his team are specialized in customized, high-end bike trips in...
My 2025 Challenge: Running 5K a Day
30.01.2025
I've set myself a challenge that excites me and (let’s be honest) scares me a little too—running 5 kilometers every single day for the entire year. Why? Because I want to see just how much of an impact consistent movement can have on both my physical and mental well-being. I’ve always believed in the power of movement, but life gets busy, and sometimes self-care takes a backseat. This challenge isn’t about speed or breaking records; it’s about building a habit, creating discipline,...
