Time is flying by

October 11, 2001

It’s been almost two weeks now since we touched ground in Europe. I’ve been busy meeting with family & friends and essentially looking for a job. We’re also getting married in december which is getting really close but haven’t had a chance to work on that much. The good side of all this is however that there’s still a little more time for other things. My father walked me around the Expo.02 area in Neuchatel (he’s coordinating the whole thing). The third large inflatable structure was brought up today and I even had a chance to walk on top of it for a few minutes. There’s an amazing view over the entire town, and it’s pretty strange to be walking on one huge balloon 20+ meters above the lake surface. Too bad most people will only be allowed to wander below those huge stone-shaped, air-filled structures;)

Back in Switzerland

October 5, 2001

Yep, different timezone. So much has been going on these last weeks that I hardly know where to start. First, I don’t think anybody has fully recovered yet from the September 11 horror. Then, my jobsearch in the Bay Area has led me nowhere, and
we’ve finally decided to move back to Switzerland. Talk about a nightmare. Oh, and Swissair is stuck on the ground but right now I really couldn’t care less. Family and friends are great – both in the Bay Area and in Switzerland -which is helping a lot. We’re for instance living with my father for a while until we’ve found a place of our own.
