Je suisse arrivee
Well after an epic road trip we arrived in Verbier just in time for dinner. Would have been nice to have a spruce up would have been good before meeting everyone! Got to see my treatments rooms-so lovely! The chalet No14 is beautiful and our apartment is kitted out well. I'm living with Ben and Vicky who wil run one chelet together and sharing a room with Beth who works in No 14.
Right I'm off to have a wander round my new town, catch you later!
