I was supposed to stay in Messlingen until Sunday, but already on Friday I had a feeling that something wasn’t right. I went skiing but my heart really wasn’t in it and it felt like I was doing everything in slow motion. I was totally uninspired by everything and didn’t even bother to look for something to shoot. On Saturday morning I was even more lethargic and while I was lying down on the couch, trying to figure out what’s going on, I realised that I had pushed myself too hard all week. I’m not used to skiing 15-20 km every day and now I was physically all spent. And I think the wonderful night hike I did on Thursday was such a highlight that I knew that I couldn’t possibly do anything that would top it, so I wasn’t so keen on trying to find new photo opportunities either.

In other words, if all I was going to do was to lie on the couch, then I might as well do it at home, so I got up and drove home. Maybe today I will find some energy and start packing. Gotta move next weekend!
