Workshops and Zurich

Hey!
I’ve been going since I woke up Friday morning, and it’s been awesome!! Friday I did a photography workshop, was taken around Zurich by a resident super sweet little lady, then wandered Zurich myself a little and then took a self defense workshop!
This is Froumunster Catholic Church. So, my understanding is that the men/ army was away from Zurich and the enemy army came to invade. So the women took their cookware to the hills and basically made camp sounds to make the enemy think the army was home. The enemy left and the women saved Zurich. I don’t remember the years, or the enemy, but they built this church in honor of the women. I got to go in the crypt!!


This is the Angel of the Zurich main station. They have this GIGANTIC open space and have dances regularly. 

These are from Sprigli and are AMAZING! The name translates to “fancy hamburger” and they’re basically two small meringues with filling sandwiches between..... I would come back JUST for these!

A quick video of the view and proof I survived my first excursion on my own Friday.... also, I don’t speak a single word of German. So finding my way back was amazingly easy with google.

Alright, I hope you enjoyed my first day in Zurich, I’ll post the weekend seperately.

Travel and Arrival

Hallo from Zurich!
Two flights totaling 10 hours and 35 min in the air and 15 hours and 19 min total travel time from take off in Pensacola to landing in Zurich, I arrived and made it to my destination with family friends in Zurich!  I spent the afternoon just relaxing and accidentally took a nap, and FaceTimed my kiddos.  It's after 1 am and I'm about to go to bed and hopefully be up to spend some time doing things tomorrow... either wandering around the village or if I get up in time, taking part in an event!

Well, I wanted to keep this short and just let everyone know that this adventure has officially begun! I'm in Europe.

Good night world!

Writing the things

I heard back from Sweden today!!! My prospectus, the proposal for my thesis, is approved!!!
This is huge, considering there was still a chance if having to change everything including my topic even though I leave in 5 days. But it’s approved, so let me breathe the biggest sigh of relief!
