So the highlights of week 1 in Monstein include:
- Drinking off milk for three days. I thought it was just weird Swiss milk..
- Making a snowman called Roy
- Meeting someone who swears as much as I would like to - a local named Vasha. She also fed me YUMMY indian food.
- Trying locally brewed (like across the road) Monstein Bier.. I like it!
- Playing with the Gerbils
- Finally getting Rosetta Stone to work on my computer
- Eating lots of cheese
- Taking photo's and video's of the town
- Successfully interacting with someone in Deutsch (a 10 year old.. Still counts!)
- Getting smiled at by an attractive Swiss man. No idea who he was though..
- Going Skiing in Davos! Only falling down once!
- Going shopping with Nat in Davos. Having time to actually hang out with her a bit.
- Reading 'The Wise Woman' by George Macdonald with the girls every night.
- Being forced to really rely on God to help me not stress.
- The weekend off.
Lowlights include:
- Missing Trumpet a LOT.
- Feeling out of my depth.
- Feeling discouraged about my poor German language skills.
BUT these lowlights are but little droplets in an ocean of awesome highlights! So all is quite well :)
I've uploaded this video of me walking around Monstein and stuff. It's not really very interesting but it at least gives you a chance to see what the town looks like a bit. I just wish it wasn't quite so shaky.
I wish it would snow just a little bit more..
