We arrived here Saturday night from ...

I finally got to snowboard today in Switzerland. Let me tell you, you haven't really snowboarded until you ride the Switz mtn. This was vastly different from my Poland experience and the runs are huge here in Switzerland. You first take the gondola all the up to the peak of the mtn (2500 meters) and from there, you start riding down to any of th...

We were staying in a lovely hostel called Balmers which had a great happy hour, a kitchen and an awesome social scene. We decided to use our only day free here to head up to Gimmelwald. We had hea...

I said goodbye to Amanda and Andrew in Lucerne and went on a bit of a crusade. I went back to Interlaken only to get rained on, and having heard the xtreme sports would not be running, I got outta there! Cancelling a few things, I then went to Bern. Bern: The capital of Switz is reallz a great little city. Nice people, quiet yet enough to see. I...

I don't even know where to start. I guess you could say that I didn't know how badly I needed a place like Interlaken until I got here. I've been in city after city after city. Who knew that my favorite place on this whole trip would be a small, quiet town in a valley amidst the Swiss Alps? Nick, Matt, Del, and I drank most of the way there. Nic...
