So we did a real whirlwind trip of Switerland. We arrived in Interlaken in the evening and I immediately decided I loved Switzerland. There are cute little Swiss chalets everywhere, just like I'd imagined. And it's such an outdoorsy, active place. There are so many things to do during the day...sky diving, canyoning, rafting, mountain biking...which is why so many people go there. Unfortunately we had very little money to enjoy these activities, so we spent our day doing the only free thing offered... hiking through the Alps. Amazing. The hike was entirely up hill for nearly 5 hours, and was by far the most difficult hike I've ever done. Thinking back I find it hard to believe we actually made it to the top. 2048 metres up!! And it was sooo worth it for the amazing views.
The next day I spent the afternoon in Zurich pretty much just roaming the city. It was a cute town, very clean and friendly. Unfortunately we had to leave that evening for Germany but Switzerland is definitely a place I plan on coming back to on another trip. Next time maybe with a bit more money though...it's definitely not a cheap place.
Next up Germany!
