The pros and cons of Swiss living

Hooray for new link ups!! Michelle over at The American Resident has started a link up called "Where I live." It's not just for us silly expats either. It's about loving where you live and wanting to share it with the world. I'm a day late with my post but better late than never right?
This weeks prompt is "the dark sides of where you live or have lived, but the one condition of this linky is to put a positive spin on your posts. Feel free to vent about the bad stuff this week, but match each negative with a contrasting positive!"
I know most people are shocked to find out that sometimes living in the land of chocolate and scary efficiency isn't all it's cracked up to be.
There are pros and cons to living basically any where in the world and Switzerland is no exception.

A bit of a struggle, I feel out of practice, rusty if you will, but it's a nice feeling.

So what HAVE I been doing with all my time when I was saying I was going to write but was lying to myself?

5 things Friday

1. Next weekend we're off on a Christmas adventure to Budapest and then to Vienna. "But Tatiana, didn't you just get back from Belfast?!" Yeah like two weeks ago. Yup, I did. We haven't actually traveled much this year or for any long stretches of time because most of my year was in limbo while we waiting to hear about my Oma's situation. So we're taking the chance now to travel a little but more. So we'll be in Budapest for the week leading up to Christmas which I'm super excited about. Did you know there is a Pinball museum there? And for actual Christmas we will be in Vienna. We've been to Salzburg but never Vienna.
2. I genuinely have no idea what I'm getting Johnathan for Christmas. Can't think of anything. We're going our own little Christmas on Saturday so we're not schleping gifts all over Europe so I've got some serious thinking to do. Gift cards are a hard no. I know what other people got him so that's those…
