Homeward Bound

I’m very excited to announce that we are Homeward Bound! In June after my eldest graduates we will say goodbye to Switzerland. It’s hard to express how excited I am for this change! We thought coming here would be the best thing for all our healths and the truth is that Switzerland nearly killed all of us either in body or spirit. Don’t get me wrong–there are tons of experiences that I was able to give my kids and because Switzerland is at the heart of Europe, we were able to travel pretty inexpensively all over–and those experiences are priceless. But I’m excited to get back to my friends and Buddhist community (although I’ve been welcomed into the SGI Switzerland community wholeheartedly). I want to be able to take a walk that isn’t either straight uphill or straight downhill without taking a 45 min train ride. I miss my house (although we have very little that we could store and have to furnish the house almost completely again)–and my gardens that my husband made for me as a Mother’s Day present I really miss. I have new plans for our meyer lemon trees–I’ve developed a taste for limoncello after trips to Italy and would like to try my hand at making it from scratch. We all have a lot of work to be healthy again and I’m starting that path now.
