Thank you Egea Bern!
My first message at the Egea Alumni page. Looks very great guys! Bernd, you did a very nice job there! Who do I have to thank more for it? Karsten? Dennis, Satu? More? It really is something you made up here.
Now lets meet in Sweden and Switzerland!!!
Thanks again for organizing Egea Bern, (Pipo and others), lets see who will sign up and when we can do so!!!
Ciao, Bastiaan
PS: Who were saying I am an Egea-Alumni? It makes you curious, this very smart strategy to let three others say a person is really a geographer and a alumni of Egea. Good thinking!!!!
[offtopic]: well, thank you
[offtopic]: well, thank you for the flowers.
there is still a lot to do here on this page (and hopefully with the input from all of you we will make it "ok")
actually i cheated: it was me, myself and i who acknowledged you. but this was only because there are not so many ppl around here till now.

[ontopic]yep, i think we need some more feedback here, so pipo feels inspired to get things rolling in switzerland!
looking forward to it.

Go Bern Go!
Sounds still very nice to me and the house looks beatiful!
Hope to find a cheap flight so I can join you - it is so long ago that I was in Switzerland. ...but waiting for more details and sign up until I will book - so go Bern go! :-)
Greetings!
Many thanks to Bern!
Great that Bern is doing the Alumni-Weekend. And the area looks really like we will have a contemplating time there.
Fortunately only 4-6 hours by train from Munich. So count my in! When will you start with registration?
Cheers

Carpool to Les Près d'Orvins from Munich
[Hey there...was just thinking about the "how to get there". I probably have a car big enough for five people and luggage and starting on thursday afternoon from Munich to Les Près d'Orvins (back on sunday). If the car is full the trip (go-and-return) is about 55-65 Euro p.P.
cheers

EDIT ON 30th of July:
Unfortunately I cannot join because we are moving exactly on this weekend.....;((((

Just some short last minute information from the Bernese Andrea (just have her an the phone):
There are no showers in the house but warm and cold water and washrooms. so dont forget some "waschlappen" "washcloths,
washrag" if you need them! (She hope this doesnt frighten you off!)
and if you have you could bring some slippers for the house.
See you tomorrow!
