The snow capped mountains around Geneva seem so foreign to me at the moment. I do not usually blog about personal stuff but today I feel I need to say something about coming back to Geneva after a period abroad.
I am back in the City of Calvin after traveling near the Equator, the world’s umbilical line. The tropics. The Caribbean. The Pacific. I am back after flirting with the snow capped Andean glaciers, smelling fresh flowers and savoring fruits whose names I can’t remember. A sensory overload.
It is nice to be back in this orderly town where things work as they are meant to and where silence seems to be the norm. Many people say Geneva is rigid, not fun, and not a good place to be in winter. Well, this winter I hope to discover a different Geneva.
2010 will be the year when I will discover new corners of this City and the Canton. Just as I did during the recent holidays, only in a country worlds away from Switzerland.
Let’s discover Geneva together in 2010 and please share with GenevaLunch your findings.
¡Feliz Año! Bonne Année.
