Private households are responsible for 45% of all food waste in Switzerland. Every year, 300kg of food per person ends up in household waste. That's the equivalent of one meal a day.

What can we do about waste?

To find out, Michelin-starred chef Tobias Funke is issuing a challenge to blogger Rita Angelone. She has to keep food fresh for as long as possible - using a device designed for vacuum packing. Now Rita has to find a way of preserving the food so that she can use it for a family meal with Tobias in a month's time. .

Discovering foreign countries and cultures and tasting coffee or other delicacies is what I enjoy most when I travel. My home is decorated with little gems I find in thrift shops and at flea markets. When I’m having one of my big DIY moments, my creativity is unleashed. Both the mountains and the seaside restore my inner balance. With a snowboard or surfboard under my feet, I’m happy.
