We're leaving Switzerland

Yes that's right, we're moving to the UK at the end of March. We'll be sad to leave some things behind in Switzerland, like new friends we've made and the snow, but we're excited to see many of our old friends who now live in the UK and to be able to speak English to everybody!! That is so exciting! I will be able to understand  people in the grocery store and the post office. Yay!

Andre will finish work next Friday. He still has some leave due which they're not paying out so he has to take the leave. I will be working until the end of March. I am still looking for someone to take over my two afternoon English lessons, so if any of the Swiss readers here know of a teacher who might be interested let me know!

It sounds as thought our apartment is also sorted out for renting. That went really well and really quickly. Much better than I thought. Apparently the couple is coming to sign the contract this evening and once it's signed we can tick that off the list. They're also interested in buying our furniture so then we might end up taking only what we came here with. Then I get to go shopping all over again :-) And Andre will get to build furniture all over again!

We'll be staying with some very kind friends when we get there, then hopefully we'll find a place of our own soon. (Thank you kind friends!) That makes it a lot easier than trying to find an apartment from way over here. I have NO idea which are nice areas over there. I'm actually looking forward to house hunting and starting all over again.

The only thing I'm not looking forward to is going for interviews again... I'll miss my work here. I had some great kids in my English classes and I'll miss the little ones at the play school too.

So let me go and check my list to see what else needs to be done!
