I spent my first night in Geneva on my own. My friend, whose flat I would be sharing for the next few days, was somewhere in Belgium for work. It was a bit challenging to be alone... at first anyway.
I felt the silence. It was eerie at first, not used to this kind of silence. I was at the sixth floor, the highest in the building. I could see from the big panes of windows the skies as well as hear the chirping of birds. It can be a bit of frightening when you are forced to face the silence. The silence that I often look for in Manila and found there in Geneva.

... the elevator that I only saw in the movies.. for real! I love this elevator!
... the stairs going to the 6th floorLater on, I grew to love it. Geneva, though an international city, is surrounded by mountains, waters, and trees. Benefit from the advantages of a modern city yet still experience nature at its finest. Enjoy the blooming flowers and the friendly sun while walking along the river. Drink from the fountains and be assured that the water is safe.
Coming from Paris where I felt so unsafe, I was paranoid at first. I kept on looking at my back, expecting a mugger lurking around. Later on, I became confident, exploring the big village that is called Geneva.
I could probably enjoy living in Geneva. With its organized transportation system and old buildings, the contrasts between the old and the new world, the prestige of the brands and old names. It would be a different kind of life.
