(4 hotels, 2 planes, 3 trains, lots of car rides and walking around everywhere) i arrived to my family friend’s house yesterday and just reeeelaxed. the family made a delicious dinner (with this view) and then we walked around the little town in the evening. i caught up on some work and then slept until 1pm today! i haven’t done that in SO long, i must have been really needing sleep.

i will be here for a few days and might visit lausanne or montreux since they are so close by. the family has been teaching me french words and swiss traditions (how to cheers here, or that they kiss 3 times when they say hello) they have been so welcoming, it’s amazing. i will be doing recaps of my france adventures when i have a little time to catch up. we saw many champagne regions that i’ve never seen, so that was a treat. but after 25 glasses of champagne, i think i will switch to wine for a while. ha.

on saturday, i will take a plane to florence and a train to tuscany. it’s so invigorating traveling alone. it’s funny, but i always feel like a real grown up when i arrive to my destination after not knowing the language and navigating through stations and unknown places. it can be overwhelming at times, but also such a good learning experience. it teaches you to be very observant, prepared, and aware.

i hope you have a great week, and i will check in again soon! there’s some fun posts this week, so stay tuned… xx, bri
