watson home-making part 01: ferney-voltaire, france
Posted by torytolles | Filed under Home-Making, Switzerland
Chris and I are temporarily staying in the most delightful flat just across the Swiss border in France. Our host, Christine, left for Budapest a few hours after picking us up from the airport (where another lady gently crashed into her car - after Chris and I were half an hour late because we left something on the plane in Frankfurt).
We have an enormous porch that overlooks a bucolic pasture. There is a hotel complex’s pool just to the left of this view. On our run this afternoon, Chris and I figured out how we might sneak in and go for a swim!
Our apartment is HUGE (nearly five times the size of our “apartment” in Providence). We have a kitchen, a dining room, a living room, two bedrooms, TWO bathrooms, and TWO hallways. Each of the main rooms opens onto our porch, so we get lots of sunlight and fresh air:)
For our first European dinner, we had une baguette, du fromage francais, du salade, et du chocolat suisse. Voila!
