Swisssss

I made it! I wish I could write about just how great it is here or describe just how much I love it! Being here just feels right. Everyone is so nice and the love everyone has for each other is often times overwhelming. During these first few days we have mostly been doing orientation activites and get-to-know you games. It is so much fun to be in a school with people from so many cultural backgrounds. In my DTS class of twenty four people there is at least one person from every continent! This week we will be having Swiss night as one of our orientation activities! All I have been told so far is that there will be a lot of Swiss chocolate and Swiss cheese! Yum! I will also be part of the group that sets up for it. Today I found out that hospitality would be my work duty! So for an hour a day (sometimes longer!) my team and I will be doing tasks such as cleaning the rooms that the speakers will stay in making welcome signs for visitors and of course chocolate baskets!
On Saturday my team and I will be going up into the mountains to watch the cows come down for the winter! What fun! I can't wait to see more of beautiful Switzerland!
I am heading off to bed to get some much needed rest. Good night all!

P.S. Sorry for the spazzy blog post! Jet lag has a way of messing with my already very scattered brain.
