2012: A year of “local” trips

In addition to making trips “abroad” in 2012, I(Chris) did a bit of travel within Switzerland as well. In March, I visited Winterthur (near Zurich) and attended the Electron festival in Geneva. Click the links to see the corresponding blog post.

Since my office in Neuchatel is 70 km away from home, my commute can be considered a “trip” especially when the view from my window looks like this on certain days.

Let’s see where we will go in 2013 …
