Why Everyone Loves Switzerland

So if Costa Rica was referred to as the "Switzerland of Central America" (see last blog post), what is it about Switzerland that is so fantastic. I just finished reading something the New York Times published today, about how the Swiss government might start giving its citizens an allowance. If you don't believe why the Swiss overall seemingly have a good quality of life,  check out more reasons why Switzerland treats its citizens so well. I found a great website that covers everything that has to do with Switzerland, even down to the history of the Swiss flag. I never knew that the Swiss flag is the only national flag that is a square and not a rectangle.
"Switzerland has a great deal to offer: cultural diversity, multilingualism, stunning scenery and, of course, its people."

This was definitely something worth reading, because it really has some interesting facts! Putting the Swiss chocolate aside for a moment, here is something that gives an idea of the raw beauty of the country. On the right of the destinations is a map that can be used to search and find locations. The Guardian has some great pictures for winter in Switzerland, and winter is practically around the corner!
