From Laguna to Lugano in 6 weeks

[Doc Alan]

Friends on the forum and facebook will know I'm just back from my second amazing holiday this year, this time Laguna in the Italian-speaking south of Switzerland
The scenery in the Philippines and Switzerland is distractingly beautiful (and so are the mountains and lakes)
Inevitably there are big cultural differences between the two countries. But here's an interesting observation - there are many beautiful ladies in both countries, and yet the filipinas are by far the most friendly
There could be many reasons for this - my cynical friends have suggested the Swiss ladies are all richer than me, I'm not as handsome as I think (), and I was under the watchful eye of my daughter who lives there (). Whatever the reason(s) I prefer filipinas
One more observation ...from a reliable source (but not a direct observation)...the non-Swiss national young ladies who work in "dance halls/bars" in Lugano are trained in cardiac resuscitation - the champagne costs 300 Swiss francs (about 200 GBP) and that's just for starters

Can't speak for Switzerland ... since I haven't BEEN there. But I DO know - that of all the countries I HAVE visited - the two I found friendliest overall, are located in the Far East ... notably ... China and The Philippines!!
