Yodelers. Epic mountains. Famed neutrality and mysterious banks. Whatever you think of about Switzerland, it’s probably got that and more. Companies like Nestle, Garmin, Lindt Chocolate, and Rolex are well known brands worldwide.

The economy is strong, which means your home currency may not go as far here. Still, the landscape is stunning and the cost of basics at the grocery store are reasonable.


Zurich: A lot of churches, banks, fancy shopping, and chocolate.
