One of the most fantastic surprises of our time staying at the Hotel Eden Roc by Lake Maggiore in Switzerland was definitely spending an afternoon on Brissago Island. For starters, it was actually a genuine surprise because I’d never even heard of this island prior to arriving into Ascona… …then there was the beautiful island … Continue Reading
