My favourite country, Switzerland


Switzerland has got to be my most favourite country. The air was totally fresh, and the place is very very very clean, with clean drinkable water from the tap (having been "conditioned" with Singapore clean standards, it was an eye opener to find another worthy country with the same cleaniness and more). In comparison, Switzerland is very different compared to the other European countries. I liked, not just Mt Titlis and the skiing, but more of the cottages at the bottom of the snowy Swiss Alps and the lakes. In the town was Lucerne, with its quaint hotels and the beautiful landscape. I remember strolling along the streets, lanes, shopping, observing the people, the buildings, the shops, the little stuff on display, and yes the famous Swiss watches. We strolled along the Wooden Chapel Bridge and went on the night cruise on the Swiss lake. The standard of living there is very high. I remember having a Big Mac meal at McDonalds there costs around S$13. It's cheaper to buy a sandwich at the supermart!
