In Rueun she lives together with her life partner, the sculptor Linard Nicolay, in the house that belonged to her grandparents and where she used to spend her childhood holidays.

[2] Speaking of her increased connection to her Romansh roots and her return to Rueun, Corin Curschellas says: Jeu sundel en ina fasa dalla veta nua ch’igl ei sco sche mellis dutgs vegnessen ensemen per sbuccar ella mar.

If we betray this original knowledge, the slopes erode and begin to slide, the sources dry up, our bees die, the eternal ice in the Alps melts, as do the polar icecaps.
