off school

since christmas i`m off school. first really enjoyed the holiday but then i had to study for my exams. everything went well even the math test that i had not passed last year. i was actually really goot at that test. yeah!

we had my niece and my nephew over for 3 days. it was so much fun to be with them not just for a couple of hours. mirco (newphew) is a bit more than 3 years old now and solène just turned one in november. i love both of them very much but did you know that little kids are bright awake at about 6.30 in the morning. goodness :-)
here i had a little salsa dance session with solène. awesome!





















after exams i started an internship in a school to teach math (9th grade) and music (8th grade). they were off school last week so that gave me one week off as well. i enjoyed it very much because it actually WAS a vacation for me. i didn`t have to study or work - loved it! i went snowboarding for 3 days. here`s some pictures of the swiss alps (on the left side you can see the matterhorn :-) )



one day i went with 3 friends from school. i spent the night in the appartement that my parents rentet for the week (they were up in the mountains the whole week!) and went snowboarding again the next day. that was at the beginning of the week. on friday a friend from church and i decided to go snowboarding again on saturday. it was just beautyful weather!
we ate lunch in front of a tiny little wooden chottage and enjoyed the view


it was so good to be out in the snow and in the fresh air and away from school and work and everything else. once again i was amazed by the magnificent work the lord has done creating the world! unbelievable!
