The next time you visit Geneva, expect to see more white earphones around the lake and on the trams. Geneva will soon be covered with apples. No not from apple trees but by apple computers and ipods. Apple is opening a new store near Globus department store on Rue du Marcher – near the Old Town area of Geneva. As an American in Geneva, I can’t wait to see more people walking with a beat in their step listening to their new ipod or sitting outside at starbucks with a new mac air notebook.
First of all, I’m typing this entry in a Starbucks in Geneva – so American.
If you can’t tell, I’m an American living in Geneva for a few months for work. Having lived in Europe before (London for two years) it always strikes me upon first arriving at how the men our so different. In the states I would probably be called a smart or sharp dresser that pays attention to trends. In other words I like to look good and wear well made clothes. In Europe I see so many well dressed men wearing fitted clothes that I think they’re all gay. Not the case. Surprisingly, you’ll find more gay men walking the streets of New York City or Washington DC than in many of the cities of Europe (with the exception of Soho in London).
