Don't forget that making a spliff out of your train ticket, ink and all, is a thing lol

Edit: There are also pockets where the police won't go because they recognize they're full of crime and drugs, but as long as it stays within those couple of streets, they're happy to let things stay as they are so it doesn't spill out.

Oh and over a quarter of the population consists of immigrants.

And there's free water everywhere.. hiking, in towns.. just bring a water bottle and find a fountain that's always running. The water is ice cold year round too.

It's also the home of H.R. Geiger (Alien design fame) in Gruyère. You can go to the town of Gruyère, which is gorgeous, and see the museum, go to the Alien-inspired café, see how they make the Gruyère cheese that you probably know, and even visit the Cailler chocolate factory, which has a Willy Wonka-type tour with infinite chocolate tasting at the end.. mmmmmmm..
