My time in Switzerland

12.11.12
I've been to Switzerland several times and I love it! It is definitely up there on my favorite countries in Europe! It's such a beautiful country and has such an interesting history and culture. I read a book called Swiss Watching that my friend gave to me to read and it was a good read. It's about a British guy that moves to Switzerland and writes a book tackling the typical Swiss stereotypes and his perceptions of it. Some of it was pretty funny and seemed so true. :)


CITY SPOTLIGHT: Vevey, Vaud

The location of Nestle headquarters and the place that milk chocolate was born. What a quaint little town right along the lake! 


TOP THINGS TO DO

1. Via Ferrata between Murren & Gimmelwald

If you like an adrenaline rush and the thought of scaling the side of a mountain of the Swiss Alps thrills you...this won't disappoint! 

2. Lake Geneva

Picture
Whether you're in Geneva or Vevey or Montreux, or on the train between these cities, the view of the lake is beautiful! It's peaceful, tranquil, and so awe-inspiring.

3. Capital City of Bern

Picture
It's the federal capital of Switzerland, but has so much more to offer. From the cute brown bears in the Bear Park to the River Aare that wraps around the old city, it was designated a UNESCO Heritage Site for a reason!
