Swiss Post #15: Quasi Cozy, the old 'hood

by Leslie Patson | 4th January 2010

Because when we lived in Zurich in 2001 we didn’t have a digital camera and film was stupid expensive to develop we really didn’t have any photos of where we used to live so I thought while Marc was having lunch with a friend I could take advantage of the time to go back and [...] Read More
