Happy happenings

This last week has been full of many wonderful things! I am so grateful for all the new experiences I am having here and so grateful for each moment that makes me smile and fulls my heart with joy! Highlights of the week include:

  • Plenty of Skype dates with friends and family - Skype may be the single technological invention that I am most grateful for. 
  • Attending a crazy and challenging but totally wonderful outdoor exercise class by the lake. My whole body was stiff for two days, but I will be back this week for more!
  • Sharing in the joy of stories of dear friends becoming engaged, finding apartments and having babies (not all the same person!)
  • Attending a clothes swop event (each attendee brings clothes they are no longer wearing and then all the participants can swop and go home with something "new" - an ingenious idea really, new clothes for free?!) and meeting the most wonderful new friends. Strangers at the beginning of the evening and friends by the end - how wonderful!
  • Bring and share birthday celebration brunches - far too much cake combined with good conversations and plenty of laughs
  • Eating burgers at Holy Cow with good company - this place makes great burgers which are not badly priced either!
  • Drinks with friends at Nomad (one of my favourite places to go!) and getting soaked on the way home....
  • Spring weather and sunshine
  • Experiencing the life of God at C3 - this place is wonderful. Such an incredible blessing to be part of this church family. 
  • Enjoying the festive atmosphere at the Lausanne Carnival complete with Haribo sweets!
