"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -- Mark Twain

Lugano (a preview)


Most people I've talked to about Switzerland 1) never knew that they even speak Italian in certain parts and 2) have never heard of Lugano or Ticino. For your edification, may I present the following:

A Guide to Lugano (a preview)

Lugano is located in the southern canton of Ticino, where Italian is spoken. There are roughly 53,000 inhabitants and it is the third largest banking city ("financial market") in Switzerland. It is located on the edges of the beautiful Lake Lugano. As I have yet to arrive, I'm going to hold off on writing more, because, well, I don't really want to be wrong.
