An exercise in narcissism?

When I was a couple of weeks away from the big move from Texas to Geneva, my dad suggested I create a blog so he could get my perspective on the culture and attitudes in Europe. I thought to myself, "Only a parent would be interested in my thoughts on that." A couple of weeks after I arrived here, my niece, whom I love dearly, started her own blog. She suggested that it would be therapeutic. God knows that I could use a therapeutic tool, as these first weeks in Geneva have been challenging ones. I expected rough days as a normal part of the transition, but when they arrive, they are never welcome. So, I am basically starting a journal of my adventures here and doing it as if people actually might want to read it. Narcissism at it's best!
