Description
A tongue-in-cheek guide to Switzerland from that nation's best-known Canadian
Emily has been in Switzerland for 12 years and has taken the whole integration thing a bit too far. She uses Aromat. She knows how to play the alphorn. She has even come in 13th place in a Jass tournament.
Her entertaining videos about her experiences in Switzerland have been viewed more than 15 million times on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok.
Now she is finally sharing her knowledge in print. Emily Explains the Swiss includes everything from Apéro to Cows, all the way through to Heidi, Jass and Znüni.
Illustrated by PanpanCucul (you may recognize his adorable stick figures), this one small book might not tell you everything you ned to know about Switzerland, but it will make you laugh.
