Swiss Alps, Yodeling optional
I took a weekend trip to Lauterbrunnen, Interlaken, and Bern. Interlaken is the place to be for adrenaline junkies. Depending on your budget, you can go hang gliding, paragliding, canyoning (water tunnels in caves that they push you through), kayaking, white water rafting, and sky diving.

I thought a lot about what I would like my very first blog post to be. I thought about it as a TV pilot where I should introduce myself in a way that is fun, exciting, and will keep you coming back for more. Then I figured, we’ll have plenty of time to get to […]
