Today I became Swiss. The application process took 3 years and I cried when I opened the email. My dad, who died in January, was Swiss. As a child growing up in the Middle East, holidays with my Swiss grandmother were a refuge. When I arrive at Interlaken station I feel I'm home.

So happy for you Katty!! Took me decades to finally feel I'm home. Traveling to NYC from Europe to visit my grandparents as a kid makes me at home in Manhattan, and now Nairobi (or most places in East Africa) as an adult. Guess I'm an east coast gal.
