New Home for a Year?

I chose...

to go to Switzerland.

My new country! Where I may live for 10 months next year. My foreign exchange info.

Here it is! I have officially been accepted. And they officially have a spot for me in....


Switzerland






Cool huh?

But I don't have to go there. Nope. They're currently still looking for some other places for me to go (such as Sweden). But it's good to know I have a place to go. I have three families lined up for me in Switzerland that I could live with.

But the question is. Is this where I want to go? Should I wait?

I have one to two weeks to make my decision. Time to do some research...

Switzerland:

It's here:


They have cool photo frames (old blog).

Did you know that...

  • They have the highest chocolate consumption in the world! It's around 22 lbs (10 kg) per person!

  • They have the 4th highest cheese consumption too at 20.6 kg per capita!

  • They speak German (64%), Italian (6.5%), French (20.4%), and some Ramanish (less than 1%)

With ninja stuff like that, I think I'd like it there.


If anyone knows anything about Switzerland (besides the fact that it's cold, it costs a lot of money to live there, or that they tuck their pants into their socks) feel free to tell me
