happy 719th birthday Switzerland

I'm so proud of my native beautiful country like no others

What makes you think Swiss?

One of my favorite things that do recall Switzerland to me, are the houses so well taken care in every details (wait isn't that the case for everything else??). Colors and flowers are everywhere, almost in a daily festive way. Nature again is in foreground, and you, the visitor, the farmer, the traveler, the business man, the normal individual walking by is once again amazed by its beauty of color, shape and simple but accurate creativity and taste. It is this clear, when the Swiss do something they do it well. Yes!

Zurich-San Francisco

I've actually already taken this Swiss air plain from Zurich to San Francisco before. It's pretty cool. Available only in summer time, it makes the trip so much better. I loved it.
Now that I live in California, nonstop from west coast directly to Switzerland? Yes thank youuuuuu!

The news is that there's an open competition to win two business class tickets for a once in a lifetime trip to San Francisco.
Now this is the part I like.. You've got to sing babe!! Yep you heard me. And you are gonna do it with flowers in your hair :)
If right now I would have more time for myself I would totally do the video karaoke "Sing Francisco" for a chance to win. I think we really need more people trying, cause in my opinion there isn't much creativity in the videos submitted. So take a chance and win it!

{thanks to Sara who just wanted to see me singing :) You are lucky.. If I was still in Portland you bet I would drag you up to the Rose Garden with me to make some cool video!!! hahahaha}

Maurice et la mousse au chocolat
