Just a quick note to let people know I'm still alive. I'm currently in Zermatt, Switzerland. It is a ski resort/town in the Alps, right beneath the Matterhorn. I came expecting a general outdoorsy focus, with paths and the like for any degree of hiking. What I found were thousands of die-hard skiers. In the evening you can barely make it through the crowded streets, but during the day the town is deserted! Weird. I did manage to locate one relatively short trail that I hit this morning, and I have also walked just about every street in the town, but I'm starting to run out of places to walk to (thus this blog post). I arrived part way through the day yesterday (Monday), and leave again Thursday morning, so Zermatt was a 2.5 day stop. Turns out that was about 1.5 days too many! Oh well, live and learn I guess. Gives me a chance to read the school book I've dragged all this way.
Just to recap, thus far I have been in: Naples, Florence, Rome, Geneva, Zermatt. My next stop is Paris, and then finally back to London to begin the mad scramble to actually learn something before my exams. First, of course, I'll have to get some pictures online ;-)
