Backtracking a bit...

Nate and I have only been home for a few days since the end of May and are exhausted. That's only enough time to unpack, do laundry, and re-pack for the next trip. It's been a blessing to travel to so many amazing places, but you can only take so much of living out of a suitcase! So it's nice to be back home and to sleep in our own bed again. Throughout our travels, I only had the internet at ONE hotel, so I'm a little behind on blogging... okay, I'm really behind, but I plan to backtrack and update you on everything!

After Italy, I took the ISB high school tennis team to the national tournament in Leysin and we had a blast. Unfortunately, they didn't win this year, but that gives them motivation to work
hard to win it next year!
Having fun in the van on the way to the tournament...
The tournament was in the mountains and the view from my hotel room was not too shabby!The following weekend, we had our first visitors! While I was in Turkey, I met two girls through my friend, Julie, and I invited them to visit me in Switzerland and they did! They are from the States, but working in Turkey for 6 months, so they had to fit it in before their time was up in Europe. Here are some pictures from our time together.

We showed them around Basel...
Took them to Interlaken...
The Alps...
And I think it tired them out! :)
We had a great time and we look forward to having more visitors!
