Farewell Switzerland

Waiting for the airport train at Stadelhofen
Last dinner in Switzerland had to be a cheese fondue


One last view of the Swiss alps

14 cubic meters (and 2 backpacks)

Before starting our adventures, we stored away all our remaining belongings into our 14 cubic meter storage unit. Towards the end it felt a little bit like playing a game of Jenga or Tetris, but luckily we did not have to make an extra visit to the garbage dump across the street.

In the end, all we were left with were our two 50 L backpacks :-)


Still plenty of room...
...but more things are coming

Starting to fill up
Almost there, only two bikes left

Our new homes

D-Day

So, yesterday we handed over the keys to our appartment and put the last few items in our storage unit... I guess we are now past the point of no return. Today is departure day, our flight for Tokyo leaves in four hours and we are very excited to finally get going!

Our life as it was......



During the next 10 months we will be embarking on new and exciting adventures.
We do however leave Switzerland with mixed emotions, saying goodbye to a beutiful country, wonderful friends and a comfortable home.







One week to go........

We have quit our jobs, cancelled our appartment and bought two 50 L backpacks and a round-the-world-ticket. All of our belongings have either been sold or have been put in a small storage unit in Zurich.

In one week from now we will leave our comfortable lives in Switzerland and head out on a round the world trip for 10 months. First stop will be Japan.

The purpose with this blog is to share our adventures with our family and friends. We hope you enjoy our posts and pictures :-)
