this is scheduled for the last week of march—i’ve requested the vacation time at my job. i’m worried that it’s going to be cold, but i’m excited that i have already got plans to make my first trip to switzerland! plus, it WAS my goal to leave north america next year, so it’s nice to have some progress on that goal.

i’m not sure if we’re going to any nearby countries when we’re there, but i’d like to. i’m worried that accommodations are going to be ridiculously expensive (my friend lobie quoted me at $200ish a night—& that’s per person, not per room), so i’m definitely going to have to do some planning on that one.

my friends that i am planning to go w/ are mostly all about shopping in zurich. but i’d like to see a bit more of the country, if i could. i’d much rather take a train across the country to see the capital or geneva or something than buy some overpriced jeans. i guess i’ll have to see. mostly i’m just so excited to see something new—plus, maybe it’ll be snowy when i’m there! as long as i don’t get stuck at the airport!!!
