Snowboooaaarding! [Update]

Family & Friends, Geneva, Snowboarding, Switzerland

Aaahhhh … what a day … I finally managed to go snowboarding for the second time this season … hmm … beautiful place (Verbier) and beautiful weather … but now I am destroyed …
Great day that was almost not going to happen, since my board was caught in a basement where everyone that had a key to it was gone over the weekend … man … but luckily Esben was so nice to borrow me his board to save the day … thanks man!

[Update]
I just remembered to mention that I even jumped out of the lift to get the real off-piste experience … rock on!

Finally some skiing

Geneva, Snowboarding, Switzerland

Yesterday, I finally managed to go skiing (or better snowboarding) for once this year (and unfortunately maybe also for this season).
I went to Les Diablerets with some friends (greetz) and spent a whole day in the boots … ;)
Great fun even though we left Geneva at about 6:30 am!
We rounded off the day with a nice dinner (actually I had another one with my roomies afterwards … also very nice).

House Warming Geneva

Family & Friends, Geneva, Switzerland

Just finished the cleanup of my Geneva House Warming … its been a very evening with some (as approved by others) very nice chilli and a couple of other nice stuff brought in by my guests.
Writing about the guests … they also put some colour on my walls, finally.
The guestbook wallpaper was filled with its first entries …
If you want to be part just come on over … all yours!

Thanks to all of you who brought some food or even an inauguration present …
and special thanks to pot lenders …

Goodbyes, Zurich, art and spatial separation

CERN, Switzerland

Another week(end) is over… After a very nice italian dinner (last Wednesday) behind the CERN hostel, arranged by all the italian summer students, we had another GoogByeParty on Friday (greetz to Katrine & Mark) making people drown in sad mood and alcohol… nevermind.
I went ot bed early since we wanted to go to Zurich on Saturday… and so we (me and 4 sleepy people) did. In Zurich, which is btw a very nice city, we enjoyed and created art (can be found in the gallery) and joined a party in the National Museum of Switzerland.
Besides all that… I also had to experience the spatial separation (not to say loss) of my “siamese” friend… (May the Boogie be with you! Shaun – I’ll be back!)
