I flew to Zurich and used it as a hub to travel around. The 1st and 2nd day it was raining on and off. I visited Rheinfelden, Basel and Constanz, all near the border of Switzerland and Germany before I went to Lucerne, where I met the most unpredictable weather, from drizzle to beautiful blue sky and immediately to a severe thunderstorm.
The 3rd day I took the train for 3 hours down south to the Italian part - after a few days of rain in that area also, it was very warm and sunny in Locarno. On my way back I made a quick stop at Bellinzona, followed by a super rush to Zug to catch the sunset before returning to Zurich.
The 4th day was dedicated to Jungfrau - spending a little over 10 hours on different trains, but when I found myself standing on top of the highest train station of Europe admiring the wonder of Aletsch Glacier, it was all worth it. While looking at the other mountains in the distance, I swore to myself that I'd be back to Switzerland to photograph Matterhorn, for the last time when I went there, it was the film era.
I'm living in Switzerland and I really liked your pictures !

Every photo is like a postcard; you captured not just the details, but more importantly the mood of the place. I particularly enjoy 23, 57 and 74, as they are just different to anything I have seen before. Wish I had a little bit of your eye for beauty!
