One of the world’s wealthiest countries, it doesn’t get more swish than in the Swiss Alps. Luxury is the country’s middle name, deriving from its meticulously crafted watches and the breath-taking imagery of the Alps where ski resorts feature around every sharp twist and turn. If it’s a romantic break you’re after or simply a view like no other, Switzerland will take you there in style.
Zurich is a chic, modern and very wealthy city with a surprisingly good gay scene. You can certainly live the good life in Switzerland – many high profile people move there to do just that. Geneva is also a fascinating city to explore. Naturally, if you like skiing or you’re looking to try, then Switzerland should be your first port of call.
