Interlaken, Switzerland
Yeah… I know; Italy, United States, New Zealand, Scotland and now Switzerland… and it’s only March. Guess I can’t complain (since I actually have a choice), but when I left for Switzerland there was nothing I wanted more then to just stay at home in our flat, doing nothing… well, ok, to do be totally honest, it was the same weekend as the first race of the 2007 Formula One Season.
The reason for this trip was snow. I have never been a person that goes on skiing or snowboarding holidays, mainly since I was born and raised in Skelleftea, where snow, most years, ends up being more of a burden than a bonus.
Willow on the other hand tries to get one snowboarding holiday or weekend a year, and this was it. Besides Willow and I, Willow’s little brother Sam and our flat-mate Annelie Widergren came along.
Like most places in 2007 - there wasn’t that much snow. So I didn’t really get into the mood of being on the slopes. So instead of renting gear and re-learning what I had learnt from 2006’s Lake Tahoe experience, I lingered with the locals.
I loved it.
Switzerland is very nice.
And I don’t regret that I had to watch the first Formula One GP on a TV with no sound.
