back online
last i was on the net was 03.02.06, day before we were packing our things for our move to switzerland. and now i'm back! hopefully i'll get to be on the track again, soon! only got the internet connection at home yesterday and i've so many emails to read. need to update my contacts, as well. it snowed yesterday and today. first snowfall of my life! exciting! we had to go out to check a flat we were to move into. hopefully we'll decide on one soon. our shipment arrives end of this month and then there's the customs clearing. so we're looking at mid april for the actual transfer. some things they have here in switzerland are the piped heating, parking at an additional monthly rental, they call a 3-bedroom apartment a 4-room flat because they count the living room as a room as well, they rarely have built-in robes in the bedrooms, just in the living room for coats to hang on, looks like they allow smoking everywhere (not a good practice, but hubby's office is now a non-smoking work place, so hopefully it's a start!), you do laundry once a week on an assigned day, malls and almost all other establishments close on sundays and most importantly, it is very expensive here!... those are the things i can think of right now. i will take note of other things and post it here. for now, i need to go out and do a little shopping :) i missed blogging! |
