Sandra here: Well well, so this little blog has been created because I am about to have more time on my hands... yes! more time! The story is, my job at which I am currently employed full time, will be reduced to a part time job for the next two years (which is a good thing!) and I will have more time for important things (orienteering, learning French, improving my German, keeping in touch with my friends) but also for fun things like keeping this blog about Marc and I up-to-date! I look forward to telling the news from our home front, a small village just north of Bern, even the news from Marc, when he's busy drilling and fixing (teeth that is) and studying for his State-exams! So, with this inaugural post, I would like to welcome you, make yourself at home, and keep in touch!
