Pauline in Switzerland (Interhome Blog)
July 20th, 2008 | Posted by Pauline
Many vacation rental agencies realize that they need to provide good travel information to their clients and that a blog is a good way to do that.
Interhome, a large US and Europe based vacation rental agency, is doing that on their Interhome Blog. They asked me to write about some of my travel in Switzerland. I worked with their blog-master Eli and we decided to do a journal from the trip Steve and I did last summer to Leysin, in the Vaud Alps near Lake Geneva. My series of blogs starts with Two Weeks in the Swiss Alps and continues with a journal Pauline in Switzerland - Days 1 through 12.
July is the perfect month in the Swiss Alps. You can get some rain (mountain weather is unpredictable), but you also get sunny beautiful days with fields filled with colorful wildflowers. It was fun to go back through my travel journal and remember what a great time Steve and I had in Leysin last summer. Eli used many of my photos on the blog, but I also posted on Slow Europe some longer photo essays for our favorite hikes.
Sitting here in July, on the edge of the Rocky Mountains, I am having a great summer, but I would love to be up in those Swiss Alps right now.
