Fall (aka autumn) is a beautiful time of the year… colors are changing, temperatures are dipping, and the air smells different. It’s been a while since I’ve really experienced a fall, and the up-coming winter for that matter. The hardest part of it all is trying to get accustomed to the cold weather – in the past five years the closest I’ve come to living in a cold climate was three weeks in Canada last March. But overall, the season is amazing especially in a place like Geneva. This quiet yet unique Swiss city sits in valley, along a lake and surrounded by mountains – some of which are starting get dusted with snow.
I live close to the Parc des Bastions, Geneva’s first botanical park, and it was busy with people a couple of weekends ago playing over-sized chess and checkers.
In wine country – Lavaux, roughly an hour north of Geneva past Lausanne, is a UNESCO world heritage site with amazing views from its vineyard terraces.
