It doesn't have to be many kilometers of distance and there doesn't have to be an ocean in between. Let me tell you it's already enough to cross the famous, imaginary "Röstigraben" to get in the holiday mood! Here are some impressions of our latest road trip, which we made through the French part of Switzerland. We had four full days to discover this beautiful region. If you're looking for ancient castles, vineyards, medieval towns, French charm and a few winding pass roads, let me recommend you our itinerary:
