Late February in Zurich.
The air was still crisp, but the birds were already singing, and I swear I could already smell spring. 🌸
My love took me to Baur au Lac for our anniversary.
The place where we first met.
It will always be a special place for us.
We stayed in one of their beautiful rooms overlooking the lake.



Sunlight dancing on the water, the Alps in the distance.
It felt like time paused for us.
Just the two of us, some sunshine, and a croissant on the balcony.


Fresh flowers everywhere. 🌹
If you know me, you know how much I love flowers… & surprises from my husband even more. 🥰
He knows that nothing makes me happier than walking into a room filled with roses.
It’s the little gestures, the thought behind them, that make me fall in love all over again.
And somehow, he always gets it just right.




The next day we had a beautiful and (soooo!) delicious breakfast in-room.
Soft light through the curtains.





Dinner at Le Hall is always a highlight.
We’ve been here quite a few times… it’s become one of our places in Zurich.
Sometimes we stop by for lunch during a little shopping tour in the city, other times for a cosy dinner under the sparkling chandeliers.
The atmosphere is simply timeless.
Elegant yet relaxed, with soft music, warm light, and that classic Baur au Lac charm.
Whether it’s a perfectly cooked piece of fish, a fresh salad, or just a glass of wine to end the day, everything here feels special.
It’s one of those places that never loses its magic. 💫


Baur au Lac will always be our place.
Where our story began, and where it keeps unfolding.
