Saint Pierre’s Cathedral in Geneva, Switzerland
Blog: Video Diary of an American in France - 20 September 2011

Friday Flashback: Winter in Switzerland
Blog: GoBackpacking - 16 July 2010
My week in Switzerland wasn’t cheap, however I managed to save some money by couchsurfing with a friend in Bern, and another person in Geneva.

PhotoFriday – Davos
Blog: Sophie's World - 29 January 2010
Like last week, this week’s Friday photo is from Switzerland. Also like last week, it refers to an important international venue. I was recently in Geneva where, somehow, business and money seems to be visible everywhere. There’s much more to Geneva, of course: it’s a humanitarian city, home of the UN, the evocative Red Cross [...]PhotoFriday – Davos is a post from: Sophie's World

PhotoFriday – The UN, Geneva
Blog: Sophie's World - 22 January 2010

Blog: Todd's Wanderings - 10 October 2009
In June I traveled to Geneva for a week of work. However, as work started on Monday I took advantage of the weekend to get some hiking in through the early summer air.

Just one hour on a local train and we were left out in the middle of winding forest paths, and centuries old farm houses. The view stepping off of the train.

The Red Cross?…Banks? Well that’s all fine and dandy, but I didn’t go back to Geneva twice just for that stuff! No, it was the Café [...]Rating: 10.0/10 (1 vote cast)
