For 32 years, I had the pleasure-filled privilege of reporting on Switzerland for a worldwide audience via shortwave radio. During that time, I traveled all over this country, and got to know it firsthand.

Switzerland is a beautiful place, which is an attraction in itself. But there’s a lot more to it than meets the eye. Because of its multilingual and multicultural nature, Switzerland is a country of great contrast and diversity. It may look small on a map, but there is so much to see and do here, that anyone planning a visit is well advised to consider a longer stay. Switzerland in Sound offers you ideas and insights that we hope will help you in making your plans.

Switzerland is also a nation that has played, and continues to play, a major role in business and industry, science and technology, international affairs, and culture.

Founded in 1291, Switzerland is one of the world’s oldest democracies, whose system of federalism and direct democracy served as the inspiration for others, including the founding fathers of the United States. This is the home of the Red Cross, the European headquarters of the United Nations and most of its specialized agencies, and numerous other international organizations.

Switzerland in Sound is a multimedia platform with the emphasis on audio. Or as I prefer to think of it: “radio on demand”. Painting pictures in sound is what I do best, and also what I enjoy doing the most.

Please join me, and experience “Switzerland in Sound”!
