Inside our Geneva Flat

Greetings from Geneva!

Unfortunately the flight over didn’t go too well due to over 3 hours of turbulence. Needless to say I may need more than one cup of coffee if I’m going to stay awake all day after only 4 hours of sleep.

As soon as I checked into the hotel and finished a quick breakfast I went to visit our flat! We are thrilled to be moving into our top choice flat on July 12th! I can’t believe it’s less than a month away! The move will go in waves as our furniture won’t arrive for 8-10 weeks so we’ll be using temporary, rental furniture in the flat to begin.

But, since I had time to take measurements and more pictures today I thought it would be fun to share some with you all since so many people asked. This will also give a good base for some fun before and after posts which will hopefully come late this summer.IMG_9549 IMG_9553There are a few things we truly love about the flat but one of them is the parking spot. Parking in Geneva, like most  European cities, is not very easy especially if you live in the city center area. As we know we want to have a car here, this was something to consider when looking at flats.

Hope you enjoyed the quick tour of our Geneva flat! I’m here all week and am so thrilled that the weather is finally Summer like! Today the high is 88 degrees and we may even go for a dip in Lake Geneva this evening!

Hope you all have a wonderful Monday!

    This place is really nice. I love the view from the living room. I think its a nice place where you can think and write not to mention the breath of fresh air.

    Aaaaaand that’s why I don’t like to fly. I had ten minutes of bad turbulence on a plane back in October and I truly thought I was going to die. Either from the plane crash or from my heart beating out of my chest.
