Hawaii, Spain, South seas or the South of France. Most of the Swiss, who recently enjoyed sun, beach and sea, hurried back because of the impact of the Coronavirus in the home. But not all of them. Among those who remained abroad, are also some celebrities. In the VIEW of Ex-presenter Andrea Jansen (39), the former Model Fabienne Bratschi (39) or the “Lüthi und Blanc”Stars Hans Schenker (68) and Isabelle von Siebenthal (62) describe how they get along in the distance. And they explain why they are not returned, in spite of the spread of the pandemic in Switzerland.
“We remain optimistic, have no fear. With my Ex-husband Adrian, and our children, Lilou and Leo we make every day an other theme. Times Pool is the hottest Party, let Lebanese food, Friday chic. Since the schools are closed, comes in the morning a private teacher to the children.”
“My wife Silvia and me disconnect more than 10’000 kilometers. They traveled on the 8. March to Buenos Aires and arrived there in quarantine. Now she is in her house by the sea. The curfew is also imposed, since, friends and family make your food in front of the door. I would have been able to travel to Switzerland, but wanted to stay in Jávea with my horses and my dog Diego. Although I’m not a Kochfan, but strong in the Grill. I ride out, column, wood, read a lot. When I see my wife again, we unfortunately do not know.”
“We have our residence for twenty years in the South of France. We love the warm climate and the beautiful views of the Mediterranean sea. A return to Switzerland was not an option for us, therefore, in question. The Corona-hysteria in France is huge. In Switzerland, this fear does not seem to be so extreme, at least we take it from the distance, not so true. With all the tragedy, one should not forget also the Beautiful in life.”
“The schools and all public facilities. Surfing is theoretically allowed, but not the beach trip with our three children. The Situation is calm, but spooky. Since we live in a very remote Region on Kauai, we had, even before the state of emergency was proclaimed, hardly any social obligations. In total, there are on our island of about twenty intensive care units, and probably about a similar number of ventilators. We were overloaded, therefore, here with an exponential growth after two to three days is already completely obvious. And that makes us Worry, not only for Corona, but also because of all the other potential emergencies. A hasty departure, we thought, but together with the family in Switzerland, and also in contact with the Swiss Consulate decided that Waiting makes more sense.”
