    If you have the chance to stop, and you haven't been there already, one place I would recommend seeing is Auvers-sur-Oise, where Vincent van Gogh lived for a little while.

    One of my favorite spots in France and it's absolutely family-friendly. You will be overwhelmed when get to Scandinavia, Norway with its beautiful inlets and Sweden with the legendary Skårs and hundreds of cristalclear lakes. I sent you some recommended spots in Sweden on your Patreon site, as I traveled across Sweden with a Campervan various times.

      @@OurStorytoTell thanks for making Annecy even more popular than it already is :D - its still on my list to visit though. Btw maybe next time you can combine both worlds and go to Romanie (french part of Switzerland). I wonder how you like it there. i also wonder how much less expensive Annecy is compared to Romanie

    Oh yes, Haute-Savoie region is a dream! I worked in Megève just after college. This mountain village is only about a one to two hour car drive from Annecy and I highly recommend checking that out whilst your are in the area. There are incredibly beautiful hikes with the Mont Blanc practically in front of you.
    Lots of love to your adorable daughters and of course the two of you from Cologne.

    As a swiss person I would definitely agree. All the Alps nations have great scenery. France, Italy, Austria, Slovenia all have theirs. I'd say where Switzerland does well is infrastructure and accessability. You can get anywhere by public transport and you're never really further from a major city than 1h or 2h with all the amenities. So that's nice. But it does come at a price that may not be worth it for most. For skiing I can recommend France. Summer holidays are just fine in any of these nations.

    I envy you! When I was living in Geneva, we used to go for shopping spree days to either Annecy (mostly in summer) or Lyon. Annecy was always my favorite! I am so glad you are having a good time!
    And lol about the 200 gram thing. When every supermarket in Germany still had a deli meat and cheese counter, the "Darf´s ein bisschen mehr sein?" question was standard in Germany, too.
    Also, I must apologize! I owe you an email and I will get to it, I promise. We just had the most stressful time in June and early July and then got sick, so I am behind with absolutely everything.
