Avoid Switzerland
it's the pits.

It's the most miserable place I've been in my life.

Spain is ace, inland, away from the tourists. The Pyrenee's are magic.

Germany and Austria are good - people, especially the young, are super friendly. We got kidnapped by a gang of bikers and held in a cabin in the mountains for three weeks. They kept us there by plying us with beer, spliffs and ladies. All they wanted from us ws to practise their English. They wouldn't let us pay for a thing. Lovely people.

If you're with a lady, avoid northern Italy. 5 days, 5 fights. They're convinced that all english girls want to fuck an Italian and won't take no for an answer.

Paris is both good and bad, The people suck but some of the buildings are magic. You have to see Notre Damm.

Leave Amsterdam until last. You won't want to leave.

Cheers

good summary!
the main story though, further accentuates my thoughts that I really wouldn't like India!

Christ, I agree with you on the Switzerland thing...
Drove into Lausanne, couldn't find anywhere to stay - the youth hostel lot couldn't be more unhelpful. To cap it off, some bloke steamed right off the pavement into the path of my car, then sidestepped and gave it a really meaty boot.

That was it.

I got out, threw him into a pub doorway and gave the usual half-potted screaming vitriol one does when the red mist comes down.

And then we made the decision to drive back into France, and found this lovely little place in a mountain town, with an excellent restaurant next door, and had a great time!

You See?

That's how bad Switzerland. It makes, even France, look good.
