Random musings So, some fragmentary thoughts I've had during the three weeks of time here: 1.Re-watched Howl’s Moving Castle. (Notice my background music..) Found out that the background for the animation is Alsace in France. And Alsace is now in my bucket list! Here's the list (I know it would be difficult to visit all of them in three months, but oh well. haha) * Lavaux * Montreux * Bern * Alsace (Strasbourg.. 더보기
Bern: the Medieval and the Modern For the third weekend I went to Bern, a city about one hour away via train from Lausanne! I was already tired from the work during the week so even on Saturday morning I couldn't decide whether I should go or not. But overall I am glad I did!Bern is the capital city of Switzerland, which most people confuse it to be Genève or Zürich. As I did some research on Bern, I found out that the whole Old.. 더보기

St. Aubin: La Saison de Vendanges For the first day of October, my boss slash task manager B.P. suggested me to take a day off and visit his hometown, a small town next to Lac de Neuchâtel named St. Aubin, where his family has lived for more than 500 years and are still running a vineyard and making wines in a small family business scale. The occasion is that right now it is la saison de vendanges (the grape harvest season) so I.. 더보기
Vieux Lausanne & Choosuk On Saturday (September 29th) all the people at church were supposed to have an outing together in Onex near Genève but it was cancelled just before due to rain. :( I was already fully prepared to head out and wondered what I should do for the day. I then realized that I was always planning to travel anywhere but Lausanne, the very place I am staying! Though it was supposed to rain all day, I gra.. 더보기
Lucid Fall: complete dissection Today I come with an introduction (or a thorough dissection, as the title suggests) to Lucid Fall, one of my favorite musicians. On music I never really had any particular taste nor thought I would have one, but now, when people ask me who's your favorite artist, this guy is at the top of my list. There isn't a single song I don't like from his five albums I own. Though talking about this artist.. 더보기
BGM is set :) Realized I could attach a background music (a.k.a BGM) player to this blog! YES. So I made a playlist of twenty songs I'm into these days. Click on the button on top right (the one that looks like three horizontal lines) to view the playlist :) It's on shuffle mode now. I hope this counts as one of my "stories" in Europe as well and wish I could share my feelings with you guys via these BGMs. It.. 더보기
Weekend trip to Lavaux & Montreux So during my first week I was looking up where I should go traveling for the first legit weekend! Though I had a whole list of places of I want to go during my stay, I wanted to start from the closest places. While I was searching I saw a lot of recommendations about Lavaux, which is a region between Lausanne and Vevey/Montreux with endless vineyards, pretty little country villages, and of cours.. 더보기
Genève + some thoughts Bonjour tout le monde! After endless unpacking and settling, I now have a Swiss cellphone, a completely organized bedroom, with three closets full of warm, thick clothes that will get me through upcoming winter, a kitchen fully equipped with food, an ID card & a new email address at work, a desk at the office, and last but not the least, a demi-tarif carte for trains in Switzerland for weekend t.. 더보기
