Lovely long train journey heading south to Italy for a workshop, so curiously starting by heading north… 😉 There are big mountains in the way, but I’ll be zooming under them through the Gotthard tunnel that I voted enthusiastically for years ago in a federal referendum. 🗻🗻🗻🚃🚃🚃🚃🏔️🏔️🏔️

I love the passive-aggressive, sweetly smug way Swiss railways announce train delays on international trains “…due to an incident abroad”. #SwissTrains #CFF #SBB

Passing the geographical curiosity of Campione d’Italia, land of the insanely-large casino, a part of Italy enclaved within Switzerland. Surely it must be full of men like James Bond flexing their manly muscles while preparing daring heists? Or just enjoying dodgy tax regimes? Or sad people losing money they can ill afford?
