THE BLOG#13 - ST MORITZ by Antonella Dedini
"Here I feel much better than anywhere else on earth", wrote philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche in July 1881 about his numerous stays in Engadine, a Swiss valley in the Canton of Graubünden; precisely, we are in Sils Maria, a few kilometres from St. Moritz.
A destination that had remained in his heart and, due to its rich nature with meadows, larch and spruce forests, Swiss stone pine trees hiding romantic high-altitude lakes, represented an ideal place for contemplation, for a soul in search of peace. Some have called this region the Tibet of Europe e because the landscape has a particular beauty that invites reflection.
Today, it is the realm of water sports enthusiasts, mountain lovers, and those seeking relaxation in winter dominated by skiers and enthusiasts of walks and cross-country skiing. The locality of St. Moritz is located precisely in this lake region of the Southern Alps, an icon in the international tourism scene for its cosmopolitan and sparkling character, unlike few other tourist destinations. It is in this place of relaxation and sophistication that we set our imaginary home.
