About Me

On my hike down from Jungfraujoch.
On my hike down from Jungfraujoch.

Embarking on a solo journey through Switzerland in late August 2022 was nothing short of an adventure that left an indelible mark on my travel repertoire. The Swiss landscape unfolded like a living postcard, revealing a tapestry of pristine lakes, majestic Alps, and charming city centers.

My mode of transportation was the iconic Swiss train system, a seamless and efficient network that effortlessly took me from one picturesque destination to another. Staying in the heart of city centers added a touch of urban vibrancy to my Swiss escapade, with each accommodation providing a perfect base for exploration.

One of the highlights was a breathtaking hike down Jungfraujoch, where quite a few cows accompanied me with their cowbells ringing the whole way. The surreal experience of sharing the trail with cows against the backdrop of the Alps made for an amazing memory and one I hope to help others experience!

The people of Switzerland really helped to make the journey truly memorable. Everywhere I went, I encountered warmth and kindness from locals, transforming solo travel into a shared experience. Conversations flowed easily, and I felt a genuine sense of camaraderie that transcended language barriers.

This trip made a profound impact on me and has since become one of my favorite travel destinations.

Tricia is awesome. She helped us with every part of our trip to Alaska and we had the best time. Knowledgeable, caring and personable. We couldn't have asked for a sweeter person who we had complete confidence in. Everything, even the smallest detail, was taken care of. Tricia and Burkhalter Travel are the BEST!!!!

Excellent Service for a Last Minute Trip!
Reviewed By Kat - Madison, Wisconsin | Traveled to California ~ USA
Tricia was able to find an affordable flight for me last minute when I was unable to find anything affordable on line. She also went above and beyond and found me seats that were comfortable given me extra long legs and sent me a weather update before I left so that I'd know what to expect on arrival. It made for a very smooth trip during a situation that was otherwise stressful, requiring travel at the last minute.
