Lorenzo Casari · Switzerland

From Ticino. Based in Lausanne. Usually on a bike or up at the cabin.

I grew up in the Italian-speaking corner of Switzerland and never really left the mountains. I split my time between Lausanne and a stone hut I've been renovating for years in the Blenio Valley. I ride bikes, grow vegetables, travel when I can, and write software to pay for all of it.

Currently

At the cabin

Terracing and levelling for a vegetable patch. The doors are in, the roof is done, the inside is the next chapter. A greenhouse is on the list once I figure out the snow loads.

On the bike

Road in the morning, mountain when the trails dry out. Last big ride was the Galibier and Izoard out of Briançon.

Lately

Re-reading Anathem. Watching For All Mankind. Plotting this summer's road trip — last year was Corsica.

Ad astra per aspera. ✨
