Switzerland















On Friday Feb. 16 I took off with my soon to be third host family- The Fejnes and my exchange student friend, Chloe Curtis (canadienne) to Verbier Switzerland...





4 countries- 1 auto bahn and 16 hours later we arrived in the cute ski village.





We snowboarded for 6 days and I attempted to SKI(which i've never done before) one day... and it was a disaster.. I had a very bad false confidence and thought I would just naturally be good.



On the way home we managed to hit 5 countries and spent a day in France and a night in Germany! L'alsace france was absolutely gorgeous... and we had a france virgin.. chloe with us so it was great for her to see.


Now I'm back from this 'sport holiday' and im leaving for London on Saturday!
Here are the photos from Switzerland!
