Dip in the snowy river
Today I went on a little swimming adventure with a friend who lives in the mountains. We were hoping to find some snow and we did!
I had my neoprene socks on. Thank goodness for that 😅 I ...

Last few days without neoprene socks
Hey!
Temperatures are really dropping these days and snow has arrived in the mountains. Today it took me quite a while to warm up my feet which means that I will be getting my neoprene socks rea...
After work refreshment
Today I didn't have time for a dip in the morning so I went in as soon as I came back from a job nearby.
Sun was delicious (at least to see, its touch was very gentle down by the river).
Melted snow temperatures
Well, temperatures are definitely dropping. Air temp this morning maybe 7 degrees. Water temp close to the point of considering bringing my neoprene socks next time
It has snowed in the mou...
Keeps rising
Loved this dip in my safe spot while seeing the strong current and under a very atmospheric winter light

The level of the river rose maybe about 1 meter overnight! I dipped in my special 1m2 of safety 😅

Such a delightful swim this morning! Sometimes under the rain sometimes not.

Twice in a day
Today I went twice to the river, briefly each time. As if my body-mind-soul needed to catch up after all those days without being able to do it. I also felt very playful and silly - always a good s...

Its been a tough one! Last night something shifted and I felt that that was it; back to myself, and fit enough to go to the river today. It was so good, after over a week without my river! Pure joy...

I haven't been able to go for a dip in a week; still recovering! Going to Madrid really stretched my system. Hopefully in the next few days 🤞🏾 I miss it! I hope you're keeping healthy!

Medicinal water
Despite recovering from this little cold, I decided to go for a dip. No head this time. I bet it will be good to boost my immune system at this time 🙏🏽
May you have a lovely weekend

Quiet
Quiet time in the river before the rain. Juicy sunshine. Not feeling 100%, but I needed some cold water. The dilemma of choosing which one of the body's needs: to keep cosy and warm or to go for a ...

I'm back in my river after having spent a few days in Madrid. Crazy contrasts here, and between here and there. Still landing after so much input! Landing on water is always good:)
