About

Welcome to my sabbatical blog!

From August 2014-July 2015, my husband and I spent a sabbatical year in Zürich, Switzerland. We explored our newly-adopted city and country and traveled throughout Europe. We practiced our German (and learned a handful of Swiss German words), ate cheese and chocolate, and hiked. I took photos and started this blog.

Forward to fall 2022, and we are returning for another sabbatical. Covid pushed back our plans by two years, but we persisted and practiced patience, and we are ready to continue Glamping In Switzerland.

We are not actually glamour camping. As I discussed in an early blog post, we have pared down our possessions to what can fit in one checked bag, one carry-on bag, and a backpack to live minimally in a small university-owned apartment. As our daughters said when they were little, “it’s like bed camping.”

  1. Have a WONDERFUL year! My family and I moved here 6 years ago and thought we would only be here for 3 years, but life is just too good here. Let us know if you have any questions or need advice/assistance with anything.
