Swimming in the Limmat
Swimming in the Limmat
Hello dear Challengers, if you wish to join the Limmat swim and strengthen your body, join me to that swim. I will give you a short introduction on the "why" you should do it and then you will tell me if you want to do it. I am a trained lifeguard (SLRG), I did also the Hypothermia Module and I am swimming in the cold since 2015. Take with you all the necessary to swim, flip/flop, safe buoy (something like the orange donut here below, if you have it) and a Thermos. https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/a/7/5/600_466843637.jpeg See you there! Massimo ps: Limmat temperature https://www.zh.ch/de/umwelt-tiere/wasser-gewaesser/messdaten/wassertemperaturen.html
Creative Decoden with Charms in Zürich
Creative Decoden with Charms in Zürich
### Decoden Workshop – Decorate with Charms and Color In the **Decoden Workshop**, you’ll explore a playful and creative decorating technique that turns everyday objects into unique, colorful accessories. Decoden is a popular craft style that uses creamy decorative glue, bright colors, and cute charms to create fun, eye-catching designs. This workshop is perfect for anyone who loves creativity, decoration, and hands-on crafting. During the workshop, you can decorate a variety of items such as **picture frames, mirrors, pencil cases, or small accessories**. You choose the object, the color of the decoden cream, and your favorite charms to match your personal style. Whether you prefer a cute, bold, or minimal look, every piece becomes a one-of-a-kind creation. The workshop is **beginner-friendly** and no prior experience is required. You will be guided step by step through the entire process, from applying the decoden cream to placing the charms securely. Tips and tricks will be shared to help you create a balanced and beautiful design. Individual support is available throughout the session, so you can work at your own pace. Each item takes approximately **15–30 minutes** to complete, depending on the level of detail. The **price starts at 25 CHF per item**, which includes one color of decoden cream and **20 charms**. All materials are provided, so you can simply show up and start creating. Please note that the decoden glue needs time to dry. It becomes stable after about **2 hours** and fully cures overnight. You may leave your finished piece at the studio for safe drying and collect it later, or carefully take it home with you. The Decoden Workshop is suitable for **children and adults**, making it a fun activity to enjoy solo, with friends, or as a creative break. If you love crafting cute, personalized accessories, this workshop is the perfect place to start.

IMPORTANT: Every participant takes responsibility for themselves when attending this event. Before attempting cold water exposure, individuals with health conditions (e.g., heart problems or hypertension) should seek advice from a healthcare professional. Safely acclimating the body to cold temperatures requires preparation and gradual exposure.

hike ending with the Lichtfestival of Lucern
hike ending with the Lichtfestival of Lucern
**Walk description:** The hike starts in front of the bus stop Schwarzenberg LU, Ennenmatt at 8:42. Then we walk to Luzern. Then we can see the illumination (see paragraph Lichtfestival ) You need to be fit and have good hiking shoes. [von Schwarzenberg nach Luzern | Wanderung | Komoot](https://www.komoot.com/de-de/tour/2737915842?share_token=aO07U0uw4szwpJv29htR3J0BFJsYKwQQ6Wrm4JVM7jHvrIW4lZ&ref=wtd) I know this is a long hike but it is not the most difficult hike. Furthermore there are some obvious shortcuts if you are not sure to be able to make it. For instance between 2 and 3 or 1 and 4 (look at the map to understand what I am speaking about). Or you can decide to join only for the Lichtfestival. In this case, please say it in the WhatsApp group. **About the Lichtfestival :** [Lilu Lichtfestival Luzern](https://lichtfestivalluzern.ch/rundgang/) We already have a lot to do with everything that is free but if you think something requiring a ticket can be worth don't hesitate to mention it in the whatsapp group. **How to go with the train (from Zurich and I will meet you on the way):** [Verbindungen Zürich HB nach Schwarzenberg LU, Ennenmatt | Das Online-Portal der SBB für Fahrplan, Zug und ÖV](https://www.sbb.ch/de?stops=%5B%7B%22value%22:%228503000%22,%22label%22:%22Z%C3%BCrich+HB%22,%22type%22:%22ID%22%7D,%7B%22value%22:%228508678%22,%22label%22:%22Schwarzenberg+LU,+Ennenmatt%22,%22type%22:%22ID%22%7D%5D&date=%222026-01-17%22&time=%2206:48%22&moment=%22DEPARTURE%22&selected_trip=0) **dedicated whatapp group** [WhatsApp-Gruppeneinladung](https://chat.whatsapp.com/GNtOMhaRwAeDnShipPsuBy) **Registration:** To sign up, please select "Yes" in the WhatsApp community survey for this activity: [🌄 Switzerland Discovery Crew (Preferred Ages 18-35)🌄 | WhatsApp-Kanal](https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaoercY1XquRrJm58k3V) If the event will happen in more than 30 days, I haven't added the survey in the channel yet. (Because message in a WhatsApp channel can be read by a new member only 30 days before he joins. But you can already enter the corresponding WhatsApp group) If you are concerned about privacy, only the admin of a WhatsApp channel can see who has voted in a poll (unlike a WhatsApp group). Please sign up only when you are certain! You can also register through Meetup, as it helps build momentum; however, I rely only on the number of people who signed up through the WhatsApp survey.
