Nature is astounding, of course. I can see Mont Blanc from my patio as we eat barbecue or play croquet on the lawn. Idyllic! I am surrounded by farmer's fields, but am a 15 minute drive to work in Geneva (with no traffic - but max a half hour with some morning traffic). I live near the border to France, so I shop in France for the most part as it's very nice, of course, but also half the price! There is a great outdoor market on Sundays all year. I drove to Genova, Italy a few weeks ago. It was a 4 hour drive plus a bit. Drove through the Alps. It was gorgeous. The drive was as nice as the visit to Italy. Easy 1 1/2 hour drive to Lyon, the gastronomic capital of France. We go to Germany for a amusement part there that we like to bring the kids to, and that's about 3 1/2 hours to drive to. Easy. Geneva itself is a small, navigable city. Smaller than I'd like, but nice. - Feb 2012
