on the move

in less than a week chris and i will be leaving our little cocoon in winterthur and heading into the big city...zürich!:) since the day that we found our new apartment a couple of months ago, i haven't been able to stop thinking about the new wave of change and excitement that this move will bring into our lives. 


winti has been a sweet spot to catch our breath after six years of long distance separation. we enjoyed setting up our first home together and then just kicking up our tired feet and relaxing (i've been lucky enough to match up with another person who takes lounging, napping, and the art of doing nothing just as seriously as do!) but, true to form, just when things begin to feel comfy-cozy it signals the time for new change and adventure. and so we're off!


words can't describe the ecstasy i feel when i think about my new 16 minute commute (versus the previous 90 minute one!), or the thrill of being closer to most of my züri-area friends. but, beyond that i'm excited to see what the life of the city adds to mine. the new people, experiences, (food!), and adventures that will be now, literally, right outside my door. 


i'm eager to usher in my new year in some new digs with a fresh outlook. 


cheers to spring in the city, optimism in the air, and all things new and hopeful:)
