Switzerland!

I am absolutely pumped! I have planned my first trip trekking solo to Switzerland! I will leave from Florence on Halloween night (after classes) and take the night train to Geneva. I'll arrive around 9 in the morning and enjoy exploring Geneva, and later return to my hostel there. It is situated in a old church and is lovely! The dormitory is for women only and should be clean and safe. They even have hardwood floors! I'll stay here for two nights, and then travel to Bern. I will spend Nov. 3rd and 4th in Bern and on the night of the fourth I'll take the sleeper train back to Florence and arrive in time for class on Monday! I got a pretty good deal for five days - around 300 dollars (not counting food) for transportation and accomidation! And in Geneva it is free to travel by boat, train, or car for tourists! Woo hoo! Here are some of the websites to check out my hostels and beautiful Bern and Geneva!
