Bern

On that 20.09.2009, which is not as special for the U.S. (09.20.2009), I'm writing in the house in which I grew up.

I spent a few days in Bern to visit various people (sister and family, grandmother, aunts and family, childhood friend and family) and I also met my first niece that I had not yet met. She is energetic and wants to explore everything. I could even baby-sitte her during the first hours I saw her :-)

I redid a little bike in Bern, it's cool!

It appears that the BLS (Basic Leadership School, the school that I just finished) is beloved in Bern, they have trains and flags with it :-) And also, I just realized that the day I made these pictures is when I was supposed to receive my diploma, but as I'm on vacation, I'll receive it later.

That day has also been special because, after having heard about him and been in email contact for 2 years, I met Raphael. Two years ago, he also started the BLS, but in New Zealand and found my blog. Since then I saw his photo in Bangkok, he met (in Jerusalem) someone with whom I went to J-city, Chad, Cameroon and Australia, and I met a couple of protugese and dutch that knows him! :-) So then, we spent an afternoon together in the beautiful city of Bern.
