After a year of constant travelling around the globe I returned home to Australia in May. There was obviously a bit of adjustment involved due to the change of circumstances, but luckily I only had to wait 3 months until my next holiday was planned.
Having signed up to run a foot race in the Alps in late August I decided to keep my travel plans rather short. My race started and ended in the town of Chamonix, France, but the most convenient airport was Geneva in Switzerland. I arranged my travels to stop for a day to view Geneva, since I had not included it in my week-long journey through Switzerland back in 2011.
I enjoyed a relaxing day walking along the waterfront and through the old city. I climbed to the top of the cathedral tower for views out over the water. It really is a pretty city, and it reminded me of earlier thoughts that I could definitely see myself living in Switzerland. Of course, I have never seen it in winter…
