new country

one of my aforementioned hikes was on the east side of switzerland, near a gateway city to liechtenstein. i finished hiking pretty early and figured i may never be in the area again, so i hopped on the "liechtenstein bus" and ended up on my first journey (since moving here) to a country i hadn't visited before!

but actually, it wasn't too exciting. they use swiss francs, speak a similar dialect to swiss german, and it's an open border. in fact, i tried hard both ways to spot the "welcome to liechtenstein" (or opposite) sign, to no avail. no clue where the border was. anyway, at least i can say i had a meal in a new country!
