Strasbourg
Summer 1994
Strasbourg is another beautiful French city in the Alsace region in Northeastern France with culture and architecture blending German and French influences. It is famous for being the formal seat of the European Parliament and the Gothic Cathedral Notre Dame and its astronomical clock.
Colmar
Summer 1994
I love this quaint town of Colmar ! It’s an old town with cobblestone streets lined with half-timbered medieval and early Renaissance buildings. It is both French and German due to it’s location close to the German border and in the Alsace Lorraine region that has gone back and forth between Germany and France for hundreds of years.
St. Moritz

St. Moritz is a luxury alpine resort town in Switzerland and one of the best winter sports regions in the world. It has been host to two Winter Olympic Games and five Alpine Ski World Championships and known as the winter playground for the rich and famous.
Reichenau
Summer 1994
I absolutely adore Reichenau! It is a short walk from Constance along the river that flows into the lake. It is an island in the river and connected to the mainland by a causeway. It is called the Blumeninsel or flower island because of the beautiful flowers all over the island, it is so colorful and gorgeous! It is famous for it’s Benedictine Abbey from the 8th century and the island is a UNESCO World Heritage Centre.
Meersburg
Summer 1994
Meersburg is located a short boat ride across Lake Constance from Constance. The town is built on a steep vineyard right by the lake, has been a tourist attraction since the medieval times due to it’s castle, many museums and how beautiful it is.
Constance
Summer 1994
I studied German Literature at the Universitat Konstanz in 1994. It is a bustling University town right on Lake Constance or better known as the Bodensee. The lake shares the shore with Germany, Austria and Switzerland and a fabulous backdrop of the alps. Constance is one of the only big cities in Germany that was not destroyed in WWII because it is actually on the Swiss side of the river so it was too close to take a chance of bombing it.
