Interlaken, Switzerland

Submitted by Giuliana Lorusso on the 2013 fall semester exchange program with the Swiss School of Tourism and Hospitality...

This past weekend, we had an absolute blast in Interlaken, Switzerland! It was our first time navigating the Swiss rail system, and I have to say the UD girls did quite well.  The city of Interlaken was beautiful.  It was filled with gorgeous hotels, fancy shops, and most importantly, chocolate shops.  We spent Saturday walking around the city, and we had to try a few pieces of chocolate, of course.

On Sunday, we took a train to Lauderbrunnen- a beautiful village up the mountain from Interlaken.  From there, we took an hour hike to Trumblebach Falls, which are 10 waterfalls made open for the public to view via a huge elevator.  The waterfalls were awesome!

In conclusion, the weekend was great. We are staying home this weekend to catch up on homework, but next weekend we are planning on visiting Zurich. We cannot wait to see what adventures await us next!
