Most recent resource information will go here. Swimchick is under construction as of Dec 25th and will be finished....soon? Just keep checking back ;)Downtown Geneva
Coming from Germany to Switzerland is a big difference.
We made a few friends yesterday that even spoke arabic, but this french language thing is still getting me. I’m overcoming it though, since I’ve been told mostly everyone here speaks english. At least as far as they would LIKE me to know…hmm…so I guess all the guys I’ve been hitting on weren’t looking at me for nothing eh? HAHHAA.
We went downtown, it was fun to see everything and hear all that french. Again, every single guy that was down there was good looking. I guess swiss people just have this gene the Americans missed?
United Nations.
Lisa’s idea of a spontaneous picture. This is the neighborhood where we’re saying.
Downtown!
Near Jeu D’eau. I realllllly wanted to go through the water but it was on the other side :(
This lady was at least 1000 years old, and she’s riding around on her little motorcycle like a pro. Damn grandma.
Where my Aunt works :) She said she’s gonna try to get us in as a visitor to check it out. Ahhh how sweeeeet!
I’m bad at sorting these on organization, I know. Look I just went from the United Nations to a lake. I suck at this hahaha.
The best friends in the world. (ARE IN AMERICA)
I went grocery shopping yesterday and you know what I realized? Switzerland doesn’t believe in carrying Peanut Butter, and that’s just kind of wrong. How can you have a grocery store without peanut butter? How the hell do I make PB&J sandwiches? If this is the Swiss’s idea of a joke well then April Fools, and ho ho ho for the next 3 months. They got me.
They also believe to make up for the peanut butter, that it’s necessary to overprice everything in their stores. I swear this regular small bag of chips was like 2 dollars. In America you can buy the plant that manufactures it for the same price.
I’m not saying it’s outrageously priced, but when I’m looking at a small jar of strawberry jam for 5 dollars, I think even Bill Gates would be second guessing where to spend all his billions. For the stores and their inventory, America wins by a freakin’ landslide. I don’t care what anyone says, I am proud of our country regardless of how sold out and overexposed, slutty it’s become. If America can provide me with Strawberry jam AND peanut butter for less than 50 dollars, I can carry the dead baggage of everything else it comes with.

I like the pictures, Geneva’s pretty :) PB&J is a very American thing haha, I don’t think I’ve ever even tried one :D
