A short update for today. I took the train from Zermatt to Geneva and arrived mid-afternoon to check in at my residence. My studio is cozy and has lots of room for my few belongings. I haven't met anyone else yet, but there are 27 other women living in the building.

Almost immediately after checking in, I went to meet Natacha (Kate's friend and former exchange partner) for a drink and pizza with her friends. They were very friendly and humoured me in my attempts to speak French. I didn't do too badly for my first time in 10 years, but I still have lots of room to improve. One on one is OK, but trying to understand group conversations is challenging.

Tomorrow I am going to try and catch up with a local running club for a run in the morning, then go and get some groceries. Natacha offered to show me around the city in the afternoon. It is great to have a connection here in the city!
