🙂 Fun business trip
🙁 Expensive
A working trip to this City where most people seem to commute to and from as they are all working there too. I met Rob and we had an enjoyable business trip despite the most expensive pizza we have ever consumed! The fondue was obligatory!
Basel, nestled on the Rhine river, is Switzerland’s third-largest town and, partly because of its proximity to France and Germany, has a strong sense of its own identity. You’ll see this in the city’s adoration of all things art and in its colourful, raucous yearly Fasnacht festival that is a must-see. The carnival kicks off cold and early at 4 a.m. with masked musicians parading through the streets of Basel’s old town and continues in the same vein with parades, satirical poets and plenty of beer and food on offer. It falls on the first Monday after Ash Wednesday every year.
