Genève Roule: bikes for free

Hello bloggers!!!
The sun is shining these days and in this occasion I just bought the first bicycle of my life (after months and months thinking about it). If you don't have a bike yet I've found this association, named Genève Roule, where you'll be able to get a bike for free for 4 hours (from the 5th hour on, 2.-chf per hour). They just need your ID and a 20.-chf cash deposit. Or instead, you can rent a bike for the entire day starting from 12.-chf, or 8.-chf for half a day. Chain and helmet included of course.

You can find Genève Roule spots behind Cornavin station, in Eaux-Vives Terrassière, right next to the Bains de Pâquis, in the Plainpalais square, in Rue du Rhône and in Fontaines de Carouge. Main shops in Cornavin and Eaux-Vives are open from 8am to 9pm.
For any other information or to reserve your bike online go to www.geneveroule.ch
Happy bike ride!

Summer ice-creams

I don't need a lot of words for this post about ice creams. I'm sure you already know Gelatomania which is almost everywhere in Geneva, but now we have a new entry top gelateria in town. "MANU il gelato italiano" is in Rue de Carouge, 65. What else? Try it...

Cocorose folding shoes

This post is For Women Only (or for boyfriends searching for a present for their girlfriends ;) )
We all love heels, it's true, they're sexy and they make us feel pretty... But when we go out at night with a pair of 12 cm, after a couple of hours we are almost dead. Or when we go to work on our heels, and we feel like a real business woman, but at the end of the day we can barely walk... I think heels are a girl's best friends but actually it's not so sexy complaining about our feet and how much they hurt. Too many times while dancing I said "there shoes are killing me", but now it's time for a revolution!

Cocorose London invented the folding ballet pumps. You wear your heels in the morning and you put your ballet pumps in your bag (they're super small). When you're too tired to still stand your heels, you put them away and you wear the ballet pumps. Nothing is easier! And they are beautiful of course. As it's written in their website "Making your life stylish, and practical".
In Geneva you can find them in Balexert, at the Michel Boutique. They have just a few models but it's worth the try. If you don't like them and it happens to you to travel a bit, you can find boutiques in London, in England, in Italy (Milan, Turin, Rome etc) or you can shop online at www.cocoroselondon.com or at www.runwayshowroom.it.
For cheapest ideas you can find something at H&M, but quality won't be the same... Honestly, I can't wait to have them at my feet!!!

Back in town, the weekend starts at Capocaccia!

Good morning Geneva!
So here I am again. What did you do yesterday night? I was @ Capocaccia, of course! Not a lot of people know this place, but it's really popular among IT-alians.
At the top of the Centre Confédération right in the centre of the city, Rue du Marché, in a cosy atmosphere, you can have a drink or eat a salad with real italian jambon of Parma and mozzarella, or a panino (and by the way please, panino is singular, panini is plural, you cannot eat A panini! Thanks!) But the coolest thing at Capocaccia is thursday! The italian "aperitivo" we all miss so much takes place, so from 6pm you can enjoy a delicious buffet and drink a glass of wine or champagne or whatever, with a DJ mixing electro-house music.
At anytime you can go and sit inside, trying the best cappuccino in the morning, a soft but gooood lunch on the balcony outside or a nice after work apero with friends. I've fallen in love with Capocaccia when I first arrived in Geneva two years ago, and the mood is always the same, friendly and perfect to start your weekend!
