This last week was a treat for me--took the week off of school (it's a language school where you just pay week by week) and went to Geneva on Monday to meet up with my friend Missy from George Fox University. She's on vacation in Europe for a few weeks.
At 10pm Monday night we realized we needed to find a place to sleep :o) We located a youth hostel and were so thankful they still had a couple of beds left. Funny though--it wasn't hostile, nor was it only for youth. It was clean and friendly and breakfast was included. Not bad for about $25! We were very pleased with ourselves for pulling off this new adventure!
Tuesday evening we headed back up to Neuchatel, where Missy stayed with me until Friday afternoon. We did a lot of walking, just enjoying the beauty that is Switzerland and Missy got a glimpse (and taste) of my life here.
It was fun to visit Geneva. This "big city" of Switzerland has just 400,000 people in the entire canton. The population is 40% foreigners, so English was much more prevalent than in my home. Enjoy the photos.
