On the road to Flims with the Range Rover Velar
On the road to Flims with the Range Rover Velar
Another adventure started, on the road Flims. The village can be easily reached from Zurich within 1 1/2 hours. In the summer Flims comes up with incredibly beautiful mountain lakes, forests and various other activities. In winter, the ski resort with 235 km of slopes is an amazing place for all who love winter sports. Pictures, Rights by www.sebastienrohner.com & Waldhaus FlimsThe Grand Hotel Waldhaus Flims
Flims is divided in two parts, separated by the bridge in the middle. There is the upper part, Waldhaus, where you will find the famous Grand Hotel Waldhaus, which looks back on 140 years of hotel history. After the change of ownership recently, this beautiful spa hotel comes up with a new touch. The atmosphere is astonishing, you will find a lot of silence, peace and a breath-taking view to the mountains.The Range Rover Velar
In case the best SUV has not yet been awarded, the Range Rover Velar is what we should talk about. Especially in terms of design, the Velar is an absolute masterpiece. Land Rover’s new SUV is a real eye-catcher: At 1.66 meters height and 4.8 meters in length, the Velar closes the gap between the Range Rover Sport and the Evoque. We drove the 3.0 litre V6 twin turbo diesel with 300 hp. There are different driving modes – working perfectly, especially in the snow, the Range Rover Velar drives like on rails. Its power is distributed to the individual wheels harmoniously, which ensures an ideal driving experience on any terrain.Range Rover Velar Design
The new and innovative interior design of the Velar, speaks its own design language. It is wonderfully tidy and stands out with the noble materials that are used: scented windsor leather in a vintage light oyster colour, or the ebony black inserts. Land Rover works with copper details on the outside, which gives the new Range Rover Velar some additional sex appeal. The two screens (called ‘Range Rover Touch Pro Duo’) is another feature we will see more often – the trend with larger touchscreens continues and is excellently implemented in the Velar.Bad weather activities – our program
We all know the situation too well: the journey is planned for a long time and everything is prepared. Hotel booked, car packed and now it comes, as it has to come: Rain in the cities, heavy snowfall in the mountains and storm gusts up to 150 km/h. There are a few things in this world that we can not change. We can assure you one thing: you can have a great mood with super bad weather and still have an eventful day. The Waldhaus Flims is the ideal place to show you how it’s done.Activities in the morning & afternoon
01. Gym
As the saying goes: ‘The early bird catches the worm’. How about a workout in the morning? Run on the treadmill, do a few exercises with weights, push-ups and more. Don’t forget stretching!02. Sauna & Spa
After the workout and a delicious breakfast, it’s time for sauna & spa. The Waldhaus Flims offers all possibilities: steam bath, indoor sauna, outdoor sauna, infrared cabin, outdoor pool or massage.03. Read and relax

04. Fine dining
The Swiss mountain regions offer numerous delicious restaurants for every budget. Here are a few recommendations for Flims and region:05. Smoke a cigar
The best comes for last, we go for a beautiful cigar combined with a tasty whisky. The Davidoff interpretation of a Nicaraguan cigar offers a unique taste experience: The first third stimulates the palate with peppery and spicy notes. In the second third develops a creamy sweetness, which combines elegantly with the bitter notes of Nicaraguan tobacco.Fashion Trends 2018 – Pitti Shows You How It’s Done!

Unlike the well-known men’s fashion weeks, which are often limited by their region, Pitti Uomo seems more cosmopolitan and unique. The whole exhibition is therefore characterized by individuality and less by random designer clothes.

Men’s Fragrance – Things You Have To Look After
Let’s get straight to the point: A gentleman should smell pleasant. But how does that work? We have some inputs for you if it comes to the topic men’s fragrance.
Men’s fragrance – Things you have to look after
Without question, the selection of men’s fragrances is huge. In general: If you use something of high quality, you will need less accordingly. The standard men’s fragrance you will find in every supermarket is worn-out. There is a clear trend for tiny but very fine perfumes.

Men’s fragrances – adapted to the season and the outfit
It is recommended to adjust the scent to your outfit and the season. In spring and summer it may be a bit flowery and fresh. In autumn and winter, e.g. wooden or leather scents are recommended.
From the vivid and celebrating spring, through the summer with its heat, or the autumn with its wild side, to the freezing winter. Anyone who has listened to the four seasons of Vivaldi can, in principle, adapt his fragrance to this beautiful masterpiece.
Your aftershave – chosen correctly
The name speaks for itself; an aftershave is only used after shaving. Please don’t buy it at the next gas station or just any other mainstream product.
How it’s done
Meanwhile, there is a barbershop at every corner. Your barber is happy to help with less known, good-smelling products. Otherwise, there are numerous online shops or nature-based products to buy in selected stores.
Men’s Fragrances – Eau du Toilette Vs. Eau de Parfum
A perfume consists about 80% alcohol, distilled water and dissolved natural essences. With a growing industry, however, synthetic fragrances are often used.
What is the difference of an Eau du Toilette vs. Perfume?
To be honest, most Eau du toilets don’t smell very good, nor they last very long. The difference is the strength. There are different dilution classes, from up to 40% perfume to a scent called Eau Fraiche. Whilst a perfume can last for up to 8 hours, an Eau Fraiche is gone within much shorter time.
My choice – Tom Ford Private Blend
I have tried many fragrances in my life. Nothing suits me more than the Tom Ford ‘Private Blend‘ collection. It combines – harmoniously like no other collection – attributes such as masculinity, elegance and timelessness. Another wonderful aspect: such a scent lasts the whole day.
