Coffee sourcing, beaches, waterfalls, lots of tacos – our last trip to Mexico more than a year ago was a big success. Read about our coffee sourcing activities in more detail in the blog post we published at Drip Roasters.

Paris, again. This time, most photos were taken for Drift Magazine‘s volume 12, which focuses on the French capital. I obviously took more pictures than the mag needed so I’m also sharing some that didn’t make it to print.

Photos from 2021 on the countryside of Switzerland (Gantrisch, Iseltwald, Niederhorn).

Another year, another few days in Milan. I took a mere seven photos this time so I won’t keep any one from you.

Later than ever, here’s my last year’s flashback in a few pictures. Didn’t take many photos, hardly travelled at all. A weird year, and a tough one to open a café, which is what we did. Previously only roasting coffee as Drip Roasters, we opened the café in March of 2020. Despite a difficult first year, we’re happy the café is still around. We have also managed to grow as a roastery and move to a new, bigger location.   Bern, Switzerland This is where I live (or nearby at least). Due to the pandemic, we spent more time in this beautiful city and in its surroundings in 2020 than ever before.   Gstaad, Switzerland My family has a beautiful […]

Last November, I had the chance to travel to Siem Reap with a client to shoot for about a week. I had been to Cambodia a few years earlier on a longer Southeast Asia trip and therefore wasn’t in too much of a rush to run to all the tourist destinations on this business trip (I wouldn’t have had the time anyways). Yet, I made it to Angkor Wat and many other Angkor sites twice within a week and was able to combine it with the shoots we did. It was an intense but great week. I even shot like half a roll of film.

Every summer for many years, we traveled to Sardinia for our family’s summer vacation when I was a child. It must have been around fifteen years that I last joined. Last September, I went back with Seraina for a week. We drove to Genoa by car, boarded the ferry and arrived on this beauty of an island the next morning. The beaches were just as beautiful as I’d remembered them.

Once again, it’s almost spring by the time I’m posting last year’s flashback. A ton of things happened in 2019. One thing was that I did not do a lot of photography work, taking less jobs but also not really working on personal work. Mostly, because I was really busy with what has become a full-time job by now: sourcing, roasting and brewing coffee for the small coffee roastery I started with my brother Dennys: Drip Roasters.

We visited Paris during the record-breaking heat wave last summer. The day before we took the train from Bern to Paris, we received a reminder by email to bring enough water. We were pretty much boiling in the city when it reached an all-time high temperature of 42.6° celsius. Two days later, the temperature dropped by 20-ish degrees. Despite the heat, we had an amazing time, drank too much wine and Chartreuse and ate too much great food.

A few months ago, Seraina and I travelled to Istanbul. We had been looking forward to this trip for quite some time, even before we had planned it. I had been to Istanbul once before, close to ten years ago and I had really liked it back then. We stayed at an airbnb in the Cihangir neighborhood, which is situated between Taksim Square and Karaköy. The area was great, the apartment was beautiful and cozy, and good coffee was nearby. We were expecting great food in Istanbul and that was what we got.
