The day started with the relocation lady picking me up at 9.30. I was actually ready by then :).( My friends knows that it's really hard for me to get up in the morning... ) we went to collect the keys for my apartment. Went well! Then a trip to the immigration board to let them know that I have arrived and to get my temporary papers to be able to open up a bank account. The real papers come in two weeks. Then we went to the bank of my choice and fixed the account. I think the guy that helped me was younger than I am. He actually seemed a bit nervous, bless him! I got a nice gift as a thanks for opening my accounts! (Chocolate he told me... Feel free to spoil the surprise!!!) he also informed me about the Christmas market, which I look forward to see!
Last year I was in Germany for the Weihnachtsmarkt and had some Glühwein, feels like the same concept here and it's very nice! Apparently it is a quite big and nice one in Basel!
After the bank visit we fixed a commuters card and then paused for lunch! After lunch my relocation lady dropped me of at my apartment where a colleague of hers was waiting for me. The colleague was there to help with checking the apartment for defects and to write the protocol. He was brilliant :) then he dropped me off at my hotel. I was completely worn out, slept for two hours. Then I figured that I could just as we'll open my Internet account, phone and TV stuff. I got some advice regarding which company to chose by the relocation lady and from some friends of mine. Got some good help and now is nearly everything fixed! I however need to come back tomorrow to pick everything up, but that's fine! I will then have my new swiss iPhone 5!!!!
Tonight I've been to dinner with nice colleagues from Sweden. Had some laughters together.
Tomorrow my furniture's will arrive at 8am so I better go to sleep now :)
