It’s Sunday so it’s time for your weekly fix of Switzerland.
Let’s start off with two really important facts about Switzerland
- They invented milk chocolate,
- They consume more chocolate per person than any other country.
Got to love them….
Another couple of random facts about this great country. As the country is completely land locked water is not something you necessarily associate with it.
But it has over 1500 lakes.
Water accounts for about 4% of its surface area.
It’s lakes and mountains just go hand in hand. To create wonderful, dream like world.
Chocolate, lakes and mountains. What a country.
Every country should have a couple of Switzerlands nearby. Would do wonders for stress and flagging spirits.

So would. I guess every country has its own little dream place. We do. Just don’t take it to the same level as Switzerland.

They have CHEESE too!
I love being near mountains and the ocean but, I think rivers and big lakes could substitute.
Thank you for the beautiful scenery that always gives me a sense of peace and fresh, clean air!

One of the reasons my son loves living there is because it’s similar to Scotland (his birth country), but on a much grander scale.

Yes the Highlands are stunning. The Swiss Alps take that to a new level and it’s mostly a dry air as well, even when snow is on the ground.

Ah…how beautiful. What you need is an ark here.

I think I know someone who could build it. Certainly someone who could bake the snacks for the ark.

I’m new to your site and looked in the “about” section, but didn’t see where you’re located. You do live in Switzerland, right, rather than are just visiting?
In any case, beautiful. Though I’m biased toward where I live: California. The whole “ocean” thing!

One of them. I remember a Swiss guy telling me that you can tell a tourist because they always go for Toblerone first.
