LUGANO!
Hey fam! 

LUGANO is GORGEOUS and sooooooo CLEAN! I am absolutely in love with this place. the area is HUGE and pretty much all surrounded by gorgeous mountains with snow on the tops of them and then a giant lake called Lake Como at the base of the mountains and in the center of the city. Ill send you guys some pictures you will absolutely love it! The CHOCOLATE is DELICIOUS. I am eating some right now as im writing this actually haha. Everything here is like italy but 10x more clean/beautiful. by the way its kinda hard learning swiss... but im getting the hang of it... ;) 

Oh hey, by the way, you sent me a message sounding like you thought i opened this city... im not opening this city, im just the first AMERICAN to be serving here after a bunch of years. there have always been people serving here from though if they have a European passport. 

So my companion is way cool and has the most AWESOME Auzzy accent (although it is pretty americanized by now ha). He is in his 10th transfer and his italian is way good and he is helpin me out quite a bit on the hard grammer rules. 

I absolutely love the ward here! They are the absolute BEST! The bishop is american and he runs the church like im used to in america with sacrament being the first hour and so on. the ward has maybe 70 members which is a nice change. Sunday we got invited to eat over at another american family's house who are from Texas. They fed us TEXMEX TACOS!!!! They were soooo good. and they were such a nice and FUN family.

So the work here isn't much better than it was going in la spezia so we decided that a good place to start is with the members here and see if we can't get any referrals :) 

Well, its going great here in the mission im absolutely loving it. the people are amazing. ill start sending you guys some pictures of lugano and como so you guys can get a little taste of how it is here on my side of the globe :) love you all so much and cant wait to hear from you next week!
