Destination: Zürich!

I leave for the airport in a couple hours, and hopefully by Tuesday afternoon will be safely in Zürich! I am subletting a room in a flat for about a month, and you can see the area in the map below. I am super thankful to have a place to go when I arrive.

As I'm looking for something more permanent, of course, I've been emailing with several people who have rooms in their WG (flat-share) available, and I already have appointments to see 5(!) flats this week, including 2 flats the night I arrive (hello, jetlag!)! I think it will be really interesting to meet the people in these flats and to see if I can find something that will work well for me. It's an adventure, at any rate!
 

Goodbye Comes Before Hello.

My last few days here in Minnesota have been full of goodbyes to family, friends and my darling puppy Riley. A highlight was a goodbye happy hour at Prohibition, the bar at the (almost) top of the Foshay Tower in Minneapolis. It was snowing, and it felt like we were in a magical snow globe of Downtown Minneapolis.


I am really thankful for the time I've gotten to spend with friends and family these past few days!
