brrrr - it is f*ing cold in switzerland !
i am back in cheese&chocolat country since friday the 11th and i am still struggeling with the adaption!
far too much people, far too much noise, far too cold - but it is nice to chat with friends where you do not have to explain yourself...

the plain in joburg left 2h too late, therefore i missed the connecting flight to berne so i had to fly to geneva and then with the train to biel. i finally arrived after a 23h travel. my sister fetched me from the train station and we went straight to see our dad and sister and everyone from the close family. aftr this i received my dad's wife car and i drove to lyss to meet 4 friends at the bar we always met fridays... and at 3 o'clock in the morning we were back at their house... 2 aspirin b4 going to bed and that was my first day back in switzerland!

now i try to get back in routine, but it is not so easy...
i already miss africa, the sunny weather, the bush and the freedom.

the last 2 weeks in africa i went with my dad, his wife and my oncle to kruger. after that i had to go to the last 2 weeks of my course up to makuleke concession in northern part of the park. we had a great time up there...

attached you can see the slide show we showed at our graduation
enjoy watching it
it was a blast of a year and i cant wait to be back and finally start to work!

ich wünsche allen einen schönen dezember
vielleicht sieht man sich mal in der schweiz
bin per mail erreichbar

a big hug
natali

Jetzt bin ich qualifizierter Field Guide & Trails Guide und kann Touristen zu Fuss oder mit dem Fahrzeug durch die Savanne des südlichen Afrikas führen ! Leider ist Südafrika sehr unflexibel was Arbeitsvisas anbelangt und daher ist es als Ausländer fast unmöglich dort Fuss zu fassen. Man kriegt keine Ar... full info

This is one of the most beautiful picture of a black mamba snake that I see in the last few weeks. The eye is looking amazing and I think that its shining is really the main factor of its beauty. For those who want to know more about this beautiful snake should check out this website (www.blackmambas.net)
