Last March, my company sent me to Kruezlingen in Switzerland to work on a project for two weeks. Luckily, I got to work with a really cool Swiss guy who turned my stay into 2 weeks of Swiss tour! :D I enjoyed my "paid vacation" so much that I went back to Switzerland the following week to show my boyfriend around (and try skiing for the first time!). Yet, it still wasn't enough. I need to go back there and ski some more and eat more chocolates. And I will. You bet, I will. :)

So in day 2 the group and I jumped on a train and headed over to the base of Mount Pilatus.  We watched our clocks and, sure enough, the train departed exactly on time.  We jumped off the train and had to buy tickets for a train that would take us up to the top of the mountain.  This…

Switzerland seen by local's eyes. Some pieces of my life here.....

Thank heavens we're leaving Venice... I'll finally be getting over the weather that's been eating away at me. I just hope Lucerne will be better. I hear that there's some sort of festival going on. Plus, we get to go back to Verona to catch up and see what we missed. It's not a big deal, but it's a…

This time I was there for work, I had not coordinated with anyone soi was happily pleased with the fact that I met some current colleagues from Belgium and some former ones from Denmark. The first evening I went out with some of my Belgian colleagues. We visited the Rathaus brewery as the first pla…

I just spent the morning strolling the streets and spending money on some souvenirs. ;)I did manage to make it out to Lucerne's Lion Monument just 10 minutes walk from where i was staying. Was it rated one of the saddest monuments in the world? Not sure where i heard that, but i guess i could belie…

I got to Switzerland on March 25th.  I was first struck by its beauty on the plane ride over.  We had to circle the airport a few times because there was a snow storm and we could not land.  I could tell even from the air that there was so much to see and I couldn't wait to see it fr…

Day 11:I was woken up by loud banging, turned out it was on the door to the room. I felt very disoriented, even more hungover, started to look around to see my roommate's stuff all gone. Take a look at the time and realize its 5 minutes PAST the departure time. I jump out of bed and start packing l…

Las mejores fotos del fin de semana pasado en Suiza. Durante el fin de semana del 23 al 25 de febrero de 2007 tuve la ocasión de visitar las ciudades de Zurich, Lucerna y Zug. Más información en EL RINCÓN DE SELE (http://elrincondesele.spaces.live.com)

Definitely one of the most expensive country in Europe. But I will go back again and again because of their friendly people and very clean environment.

A tour of Lucerne was the highlight of the day.  The Lion Monument, and the old town area. We could have taken a cable car gondola up to the top of the mountains, but since my wife and I are not to too happy at heights we decided to stay down near the lake. We walked the old town area and took…
