I hope you enjoy reading about my life in Geneva. Read about our adventures over the next 2 years in and around Switzerland, and I'll provide some good travelling tips and interesting facts that we find out along the way.

Success!

Just a quick note to boast about my french language skills!  Thanks to Google Translator, I was able to talk to the apartment building manager this morning in French and have her explain to me where we take our trash out! It was such an exhiliarting experience speaking another language and actually having someone understand me.

I would highly recommend using Google Translator while in a foreign country. Its amazing! You just type in the phrase or sentence you want to say and Voila! It provides you with exactly what to say.  I also used it to interpret the washing and drying machines so that I could do our laundry.

Now we have clean clothes and no garbage. Life is good.
