Let's go to Züri , no Zurich, no! Zurigo AH! Switzerland!

Shoutin' Out from Zürich, Switzerland
Hello or Grüezi,
I'm in Zürich, Switzerland today and boy do I wish I lived here! Why do our ancestors have to go run off to the Americas.... jeez I blame great great grandpa for us not living here, no just kidding. Anyways, I realized that people in Switzerland speak more than one language. The official language here in Zürich is German, but in other places they speak French, Italian and Romansch. Wow, I would have some serious problems learning all those. Anyways, with all those different languages the city of Zurich is pronounced differently where ever you go. In German it's Züri, French it's Zurich, and finally in Italian it's Zurigo. But, looking at a map the city is usually seen just as Zürich. The city was also named with the best quality of life in the world as we as the wealthiest city in Europe...again, I WANT TO LIVE HERE! Pretty sweet to get to see some of the historical castles of Europe also. Wish y'all were here to enjoy the world as I am getting to experience it. Next Stop, China!
