No trip for this week

Hello everyone,

During the past couple of weeks, it has been regular for me to go out of Geneva and explore other areas of Switzerland. However, this week, my travels will terminate for a bit as I stayed indoors for three staight nights (starting Friday evening) trying to recuperate from a flu relapse which actually made me go 'down in the doldrums.' It was sunny outside for the entire week but my mood and health is not really co-operating with me to partake leisurely activities in this weather break we have in Geneva. During this time of the year they say, weather in Geneva is always on the cloudy side and I have actually proven that myself with cloudy spells lasting over 2 1/2 weeks. That means dark, no sun and the balmy feeling that does not really motivate you to go to work.

I thought I was already ok last Thursday and Friday as I was already able to go to work and my fever and cough has been quite improving. However, come Sunday morning, I had a relapse and my condition deteriorated once again. I actually contracted another symptom involving the digestive tract, describing it is deemed improper for this blog :(. Hopefully everything will be fine and that I would just need some additional bed rest to recuperate.

I actually had some interesting visitors over the past couple of weeks that I personally do not know. Surprisingly, they are from France - in Saint-Lumine-de-Coutais, Versailles, and Arcuiel. If you only know my struggles everyday from not knowing your language.... makes me feel really isolated and down in the doldrums here in Geneva. Would be nice to have a francophone friend too!
