I'm from Bowling Green, Kentucky, born and raised. I'm majoring in Health Care Administration. I love to dance and sing. I've fallen in love with poetry since ENG 200, and I can't wait to start reading poetry that relates to places we go in Switzerland. This is my first time to Europe, and I really could not be more excited! Switzerland is so beautiful and very picturesque!
My first impression of Gryon was that it reminded me of Beauty and the Beast. I kept waiting for people to break out into the first song from the movie. It is a very little town and a quiet village. We walked around today and did not see many people, but the people we did see were very friendly and welcoming. The Mountains are very inspiring to me; they are sublime.
This should be an eye-opening experience for me. I've already been shocked by the amount of people who do not speak English. Going to lunch today was difficult because I assumed the waitress did not speak English. I then, luckily, learned that she did speak English. I brought along with me a small French language book to help us out along the way and it has been very helpful. I am most excited about actually visiting the places I've read about in our books.
