This past 5 days has been full of family and I have absolutely loved it. Last Friday afternoon, one of my relatives picked me up at my apartment in Lugano and took me to their house about 45 minutes away. What a gorgeous view they have from their house, I could have spent all day looking at the mountains. With my stay with them I was truly immersed in the Swiss Italian culture. My weekend consisted of amazing lasagna, neighborhood walk, BBQ, hockey game, Sunday morning market in Italy, and a wonderful stroll along Lake Maggiore. So much fun getting to know my family.

Yesterday, I took a train right after my classes ended to Zurich to visit more family! What a lovely visit, even if it was for just a day. As I am writing this I am on the train on my way back to Lugano. I had such a blast being with them and their two little boys. We had a wonderful Tuesday with strolls around the neighborhood outside of Zurich, more wonderful lasagna, a visit to the zoo, and dinner by the lake in Zurich. I had so much fun and I will for sure have to come back another Tuesday!
So much fun!
Beautiful Lake in Zurich
