Down by the water. On the Sunday the sun was shining and the alps were visible. Quite amazing!
Flags down a Swiss Street
Outside the United Nations Building. Lots of officials and lots of security!
Hanging out by the water on a sunny Sunday afternoon
The Reformation Monument.
The whole group.. we joined up with 400+ kids from other International Schools across the world to discuss Human Rights and how we can get involved in various issues. 
I searched and searched for this fountain but didn't find it until the last day. Apparently they don't always turn it on. Good to know!
I just got back from taking a group of students to a Global Issues Network Conference in Geneva Switzerland. It was dealing with human rights and while I didn't have to do much but make sure the kids were inline.. I actually was extremely affected by it. We attended sessions led by major activists fighting for human rights and trying to make a difference in the world. It was great seeing 400+ students being inspired to change the world and to fight for what is right. I thoroughly enjoyed Geneva- what a beautiful city! It was a good chance to bond with a group of students, to inspire and be inspired and to think about what I'm really doing in this world and if I'm actually making any sort of difference.... very humbling indeed.

So is it alarming to you that you blend in awfully well with the students? You are looking extremely young, and cool, and hip. Pretty sure I never had teachers like that. Well done!
What a great trip!
