It’s summer in Basel too

Both of us have been feeling a little lonely lately. Why you ask… Manish left for Basel, Switzerland over a month ago, and I am still hanging out in Champaign. He’s doing research at the University of Basel, and is trying to get adjusted to the European lifestyle. I’ll let him write about his expriences there. I’m counting down the days till I leave to join him – 23 days now. We are planning on doing a bit a of traveling around Europe for few weeks. We’ll spend around a week hiking in the Alps, and some time in France and Belgium maybe.
