Verzasca, Switzerland

It doesn’t even matter where you are, or what you’re looking at – if you’re in Switzerland, chances are what’s in front of you is picture perfect. See that clear water? It’s 100% drinkable. We didn’t even have to bring water – we just filled up our containers at the river. 

Travellers greeted each other differently in every country, and in Switzerland, I was always excited to smile  and greet grüezi to passersby. 

Highlights of this hike: abandoned towns from hundreds of years ago, hobbit-like stone houses with people still living there (!) , and giant rocks to climb where the river falls.
