How about, for example, salmon rolls and the rest of the champagne?
To block out the booze that’s still floating around in my head, I flee between the pages of Donna Tartt’s The Secret Story for the second time. Unpredictable characters, a murder and a dark secret put the friendship of five college students to the test and sucked me into the dark, addictive atmosphere from the very first page. – Jana Giger
Hit the ski slopes on January 1st. You should then be able to curve down the artificially snow-covered slopes almost alone. Unfortunately, I only know this from hearsay. Because every year I make it my goal to stand on the board on January 1st. And I don’t make it every year. It will be the same this year. But this is how I know right at the beginning of the year: Resolutions are just not for me. – Alexandra Fitz
When my father switched on the TV for the New Year’s concert from Vienna, I always withdrew to my room as a teenager – you could chase me with the sounds of the waltz! And today I am voluntarily sitting in front of the television and following the annual spectacle, 2023 with Franz Welser-Möst as conductor. – Daniel Arnet
January 1st is perfect for continuing good habits. So Airpods in and let’s go to the sport. So that motivation doesn’t fall by the wayside, I listen to the new single “La fine” by the Italian rock band Måneskin. – Adina Steimer
If you wake up with a headache, it’s best to just glow a bit. And with the last remaining champagne bottle. Salmon rolls go best with it. And then: Pack your loved ones and off to the sofa and on Netflix. For example with «The Recruit», the most entertaining spy series that has recently appeared. Suspense that flows seamlessly into a New Year’s nap. Start the new year well. – Silvia Chui
After a short night, an extra portion of cold air is good. We drive to the next Jura height and are happy that we leave the sea of fog below us. Striking: If you meet someone out for a walk on January 1st, you say hello in a particularly friendly manner. – Karen Scharer
Do you also know this: On January 1st in broad daylight you hear a lonely crack of fireworks from somewhere and wonder what went wrong? Has the late bloomer who is disturbing the silence here found another rocket behind the door that he forgot the night before? Is he wrong about the date? Does he want to provoke? Questions upon questions that will occupy me again this New Year. – Jonas Dreyfus
Youtube with the pain guru
There needs to be more movement. Since I know from experience that I no longer use my fitness subscription when the first rays of sunshine and spring-like temperatures are around, I won’t renew it either. Instead, I try a training app: My favorite is the fascia training from Liebscher-Bracht. The films of the pain guru from Germany are clicked millions of times on YouTube, his instructions are clear and easy to understand – and he is strict enough to keep up the motivation even on the living room carpet. – Katya Richard
