Arrival in Zurich

Last week wednesday morning, after a big breakfast with Jule and Nadine I started my trip to Zurich. First it took me to Forchheim, Bavaria, where Kathrin's parents live. I didn't want to make the whole way in one day, so I spent one night there. Kathrin came with me to visit her parents and it was great to be in her company while driving. Her family is very friendly and her dad a great cook. Thanks a lot!!!
Next day I went on the road again and enjoyed the nice south German landscape passing by. I stopped in Stuttgart for lunch with Jonas, who I haven't seen for quite a while.
From Stuttgart it was not that far anymore. I passed by Schaffhausen, which is the first Swiss city after the border and met there with Mike. He was so sun tanned, I almost got envious. But no wonder after 10 month India... ;)

After all these stops and meeting people I finally arrived in Zurich and found my house. My flatmate Urs (typical Swiss name) helped me to get all my stuff out of the car and afterwards we went to the cinema. Nice movie "The Science of Sleep"...it's like a trip back to your childhood fantasies.

Saturday I went to Ikea, not a really good idea...to many people, and arranged my room. The rest of the weekend I spent mostly sleeping in my new bed.
And since yesterday I'm an official student of the ETH, jippie! In the morning I did some of these official registrations, bought parking admissions (I don't want to get another parking ticket ;) and met Olga. We spent a nice afternoon chatting in a café.

Now I gonna pick up my mum at the airport. She comes to visit me some days and will drive the car back to Berlin. Will be nice to discover the city with her, doing all the touristic stuff...well, I'm still kind of a tourist. It will take some time, until it feels like 'home' here.
