Switzerland Part 2

Zurich

We continued our journey from Geneva to Zurich by Euro Rail.

Geneva & Zurich are in a nutshell a city where it is good to shop.

Quality of life seems good but cost of living is presumably high.

Zurich is the biggest city of Switzerland.

Word has it that Switzerland is the best place in the world to work.

I chose to believe so.

After checking into our hotel, we took a walking tour of Bahnhofstrasse, which is lined with some of the world's most elegant shops.

If only i can get hold of one of those tempting Rolex watches.
Hunny, work harder, pls!
hehe...
