Switzerland Easter Trip

Last weekend, I went travelling around switzerland during the Easter break with Zhimin and Rox. Though most of the time the shops were closed, we still managed to see quite a bit of stuff :)

voted my fav place for this trip. The old town is really beautiful and brings one back in time. Zhimin and I managed to find a Salsa club which had a nice rough feel, the down point is that we went too late. We heard about 4 salsa songs and then the music changed to hip hop. Well.. at least we heard something. (boy am i deprived!) Shopping is alright, the church was gorgeous (we went back 3 times and different times of the day), and the bears were adorable. It is believed that Bern was named after the bears.

From Bern, we went to the French side of Switzerland. Everybody speaks French and the pple here are also more snobbish than the German side in general...


The three of us all didn't really like Lausanne. There wasn't much to offer and the town seem to lack urban planning. Luckily, the Chateau de Chillon (about 40mins away from Lausanne) saved the day. It was gorgeous. Very organised tourist site too.
