Unnecessary Personal Information

As my more enthusiastic readers will know, we are leaving our adorably tiny flat in Aarau at the end of the month (preceded a week earlier by the departure of our furniture, but rather than mooching off Reto's sister and her husband for an extra week, we are planning on camping in our flat with only an inflatable mattress, a saucepan and two laptops for company). After assorted mooching (as mentioned) and then a bit of a trip to Australia to get married , we will be coming back to Switz and moving to [a town that I have decided not to mention, for the sake of online semi-anonymity] where Reto has a new job. Happily, or possibly not, it's an exciting new town on the other side of the country, with lots more stuff than Aarau ever had to offer, where people speak a whole new language (french) and where I know absolutely no one.

So there you go. A new flat, a new marital status, a new language (grr).

That's handy. Now I know where Aarau is

You'll find a lot of people in or near Fribourg prefer to speak in Swiss German so I don't think the adjustment will be that hard. And if you start speaking in Swiss German, they will probably understand..

And if you are really lonely, just make your way to Bern and you might feel a bit more like you were back in Aarau. I lived in Lenzberg for 2 months...
