I finally made it to Crans-Montana. Stefan’s family is very happy to receive me and Stefan’s mother Ursela made me a wonderful home cooked meal. Later Stefan’s sister, Monique, and I went to see a hockey game. It’s a free game outside. You stand and watch, and Montana (in the yellow jerseys) won! Later, Stefan and I went out with his younger brother Lucas and Lucas’s girlfriend Chiara, went out and had a couple of beers. I met some of Stefan’s friends, Olivier, Inez, Patrick, Pischus.... read more

On the train to Luzern I met Andrea. She is from Thalwil (I think). She is very pleasant and smart and told me some things to do in my afternoon in Luzern. She is studying Law in Luzern and was going to meet a friend to study with. Her first language after Swissgerman, is German, but she also studied English and French in school of course. She doesn't like French very much. She has been to California when she was 12. She went to Los Angeles, San Francisco and also to Arizona to see the Grand Canyon. I told her I had never been to the Grand Canyon even though it is very close. She said, similarly, she had never been to the Materhorne here in CH. But she told me her favorite thing when she ... read more

At the Hotel Alexander Guesthouse in Zurich I was trying my key in all the doors on the 2nd floor because I forgot which was my room number. Some noisy girls that were staying there came up to me laughing and took a look at my key. I didn't ask them to, they just took it out of my hand. Then they laughed at me and pointed to the stairs. I had to go up another floor. I forgot that in Europe you have the ground floor, then the first floor, then the second floor. Their laughter echoed all the way up the stairwell as I crawled to my cozy, welcoming, respite of a room. Lights out! I woke up today in Zurich! Took some snaps of the city before getting on the train to Luzern. ... read more

I met Vyctor on the plane to Munich. His connection there was to Romania where he is from. He was a very nice guy and was bringing back gifts for the holidays. He had a toy truck for his nephew. I thought it was tough for me going through security, try being a Romanian guy with 2 video cameras! ... read more
