swisssssss

geneva was great! we got there on thursday. anna and i had our second couch surfing experience and it went just as well as the first one! christos was our host and he was originally from greece. we were his first american couch surfers and i think we made a good impression! we met the other girls (kaitlin, jessie, grace, and karie) in geneva on saturday and then kaitlin, anna and i went to interlaken. we are staying in balmers which is the same hostel that my parents stayed at wayyyy back in the day. its a really cool place! not very busy but we made some friends. us three girls took the train to lauterbrunnen which is a little town that is slightly higher up in the mountains than interlaken but still warm enough to wear shorts and tank tops and for kaitlin to get burned. we just wandered through the countryside with the rolling green hills in between us and the steep cliffs of the mountains. there were waterfalls all over the area we were in. very cool. switzerland is a very beautiful place! i couldnt help stopping every three steps to take another picture of the gorgeous scenery! it rained today but we went to bern for a while to explore and then came back and hung out with our hostel companions. on to munich tomorrow!
