I can't believe we are leaving a week from tomorrow. Where has the time gone.. seriously?
This weekend was unbelievable. 8 of us, all of our best friends here, went to Interlaken, Switzerland together. It was the most amazing weekend.. a perfect way to end the trip. We took a train to a little village in the mountains called Grindlewald, where it was snowing (first snowfall of the season that i saw was in the swiss alps, so great). we went ice skating, night sledding, skiing (i passed on that one.. snowboarding in the swiss alps when i totally forget how to is not such a great idea), and last but not least... SKYDIVING. i actually jumped out of a helicopter and free fell over the swiss alps.. and then parachuted to the ground. it was the most amazing experience of my entire life, i loved every second of it. 6 out of 8 of us went together, it was unreal. I'd do it again in a heart beat if i could.. especially over the alps. I still cant believe i did that... it wasn't even that scary, it was just amazing. The feeling is like your floating, and the adrenaline when you jump out of the helicopter is crazy, all of a sudden your just falling through the sky. un real.
we also went to Bern, the capital of Switzerland, which was gorgeous and old, authentic switzerland because since its a neutral country there hasn't been any wars to destroy the city. there was a huge chrismas market in the center of town and all around, so that was fun to walk around.
we had so much fun being together.. like a huge family for our last weekend. Switzerland was the perfect place to go, it was so fun but so peaceful and relaxing at the same time. it made me look back and realize how amazing this entire trip has been - being abroad is an experience of a lifetime. i really wish i could go back to august 23rd in greece and start all over again, i wouldn't change a thing... just re-live it.
