| Page Views: 1,588 Last Visit to Switzerland: May, 2003 I Used To Live Here | the land of milk, chocolate and mountains by sinoda - last update: Jul 11, 2003 |
Do you have any stereotypical ideas regarding Switzerland?
Which are they?
I bet you if you have never been to CH you think it is a land where milk and honey flow in rivers in stead of water, where everybody is rich and nobody has to pay taxes....
A land famous for its chocolate, watches, banks filled with gold bars, sad political chapter during WWII and cows with their legs shorter on the hill-side, since the mountains are so steep.
Well, let me correct some of these misunderstandings.
I am starting to build my CH pages. So be patient, slowly but with uncanning precision I will unravel some of the swiss myths and show you my Switzerland where I was born.
My last visit to Switzerland was in May of this year. I have taken lots of photos - mainly in the canton Aargau. I have updated them and look forward to doing so in my VT-Switzerland too.
That however will require another trip, some day...
For the moment bear with me and please comment on anything you want to.
