After a long travel drought, it’s not shabby at all when Switzerland is your first destination aboard. The agenda? Outdoor adventure. My airline of choice was Swissair (www.swissair.com) and the flight between Singapore and Zurich took close to 15 hours. Upon arrival, I got on the Swiss Federal Railways (www.sbb.ch) – with a first-class Swiss Travel Pass (www.swiss-pass.ch) in my hand – and headed to my first stop: Interlaken.
They weren’t kidding when they said that Swiss not only want to be on time, but they take pleasure in being punctual. After I checked into Hotel Metropole (www.metropoleinterlaken.ch) – nestled conveniently in the Interlaken city centre with a majestic view of the Jungfrau massif from the balcony of my room – I received a phone call from Paragling Interlaken (www.paragliding-interlaken.ch) an hour prior to my booking to make sure that I was on my way. All psyched up to check it off my bucket list, I wasted no time in layering on a couple pieces of clothing and walked over to the gathering place with 30 minutes to spare.
