Falls from viewpoint

  • Originally from Atlanta, Georgia in the United States, but now living in Zug, Switzerland, "Guten Tag, Y'all" is a blog about my experiences as an expatriate. It is a great adventure!

    I hope you enjoy, and maybe even learn a little.

I live in a weird electromagnetic vortex or something

I have no idea what the deal is with every piece of electronic equipment I own.  My desktop only allows me to open it in safe mode.  My laptop freezes when I try to open the browser.  Even my smartphone went all crazy and I had to send it off to be fixed after an … Read more
