Gandria

I know, the same sounds like a sexually transmitted disease. Lets move on. This little town is located a little over an hour away from Lugano (if you walk.) So one day after school we set of off for a little afternoon adventure possibly with some pasta and gelato rewards in mind. It was a gorgeous walk along the lake and when we finally got there we found out we were only one mile from the Italian boarder. This is to give you an idea of how confusing the culture is in Switzerland. The country has Swiss-Italians, Swiss-Germans, and Swiss-French people. All them have different opinions about each other WITHIN the country let alone what the actual Italians, French, and Germans think of the Swiss (which is that they are NOT a part of their countries or cultures.) Is your mind a little bit blown? Lets just move on.

Yes, that is a four toed cat.

But he loves to PLAY!
Some highlights of the trip were:
  • Beautiful cliff arches
  • Differnt views of the lake
  • Tupac graffiti - they love him here!
  • The BEST postcard like picture I have ever taken (at a gas station)
  • Bonding
  • A delish gelato and espresso
  • A four toed cat we named Pedro

Crushed after
This is real life i SWEAR... reflection of the mountains in the lake was unreal.


Holla at the solo pic!

Literally there are no water fountains here so we use well-like things that constantly stream


Don't let the boat distract you from the background!@#$%
