My sister asked where Hannah will be staying, and what language they speak.
She will be staying at Kathi’s sisters house in Lucerne Switzerland, and be immersed in Swiss-German.
It’s all so exciting.. And, I have to say, Teri and Juerg’s house is in, lets say, a picturesque location? For instance, this is looking (East I believe?) out the Kitchen window. Yes. That is looking over a Vineyard, onto lake Lucerne, with the Swiss Alps beyond that.
I mean.. really? This is a postcard, not a view from a normal persons yard. jeesh. In case you are wondering, they are not independently wealthy.
This is the view to the south I believe?
Breathtaking.
Here is a map of Lucerne.

As you know, Hannah was dissapointed in not getting into the SCGSSM (Gov. school of Science and Math). But don’t ever let anything get in your way. Kathi’s sister Teri found a Science and math School in Switzerland that was very interested in Hannah attending. They said they dont often get female exchange students that like Science and Math! Well; They got one now.
A note that Teri mentioned on facebook:
I will add here (not too much pressure ) Kantonalschule Alpenquai is the best highschool in Central Switzerland. We have 4 levels of HS when kids leave 6th grade if the have an 5.2 grade pt ave out of 6 they go to Kantonalschule. Next lower is Oberstufe A, then Oberstufe B and then C level. Hannah will be with the top top students all around.
No, not too much pressure.
Lol.
