EmptyNest2
In four week’s time we'll be empty nesters!

That is the day when our younger daughter Chantal is getting married.

The wedding ceremony is taking place in the imposing reformed church Gossau ZH on Saturday 22nd April 2017 at 1.00pm.

My daughter and future son-in-law have a wedding website which you can access with this link:

And here they are: Chantal and Lorenz.

Chantal is currently working at a special needs school in Wetzikon, with the aim of studying occupational therapy in Winterthur next year.

Lorenz has just finished his training to be a policeman and is now working in Zurich.

Once the wedding has taken place they will be living in Effretikon.

At the moment our house is a workshop where all kinds of decorations and items of clothing are being got ready for the big day.

I’m sure there will be a lot to report over the next four weeks.
