It is 1 July 2006, our first day in Switzerland as a family. 9 years ago we were in this country hopping on and off the Eurobus from London visiting European cities on tight student budget. It was a mixed feeling for me personally. It was a big step in my career and a big step as a family. In a way it happened at the right moment; Lana, our daughter is only 6 months old and at this age this change would be easiest to handle. She was good on flight and the moment we arrived she looked as happy as ever.
Baden is a small city about 27 km from Zurich, in canton Aargau, in the German region of Switzerland. The city was built pretty much through the establishment of a company called ABC what is today known as ABB and Alstom (previously only ABB until Alstom bought part of it). Until today, one can easily tell that ABB and Alstom continue to play an important role in the social and economical aspect of the township.
The photo above was taken on the first day of our arrival from a bridge a short distance from our temporary apartment Residence Am Wasser, that is part of the Limmathof Hotel. It is in this hotel where you find the famous Novum Spa with Baden hot spring.
