📌 Practical Tips:
1. Swiss Travel Pass is great value - unlimited trains and boats

3. Mind speed limits on mountain roads - snow tires essential in winter
4. Dining is expensive - supermarket meals are delicious alternatives

🧀 Food Recommendations:
Cheese fondue (caution: may not suit Asian tastes)
