the swiss couple

So the other day, G & I were wandering around Mendoza, just kicking it, when we ran into one of the many Swiss couples we’ve met at the school. After a few minutes chit-chatting on the street, we decided to reconvene at their apartment in an hour. They are this great couple, with a super-relaxed vibe. And! A six-month-old baby. I mean, its an inspiration to see these two travel smoothly and easily with their little daughter. A reminder that traveling with kids is totally possible.

Another interesting thing: for a while, we talked about food and eating in Argentina—they’re interested in making sure the food they start their daughter on is organic. It seems that most of the veggies and meat here are, just by mode of general farming practice, but we can’t be 100% sure. Anyway, then we talked about what kinds of food they eat in Switzerland and we were all talking about efforts to eat locally (though, in Switzerland, that includes France since “you can bike there!”). Sort of exciting to realize that efforts to eat locally and organically is an international effort.
