elcome to the Swiss winter! We owls are<br />
fortunate enough to get a bird’s eye view of<br />
the magical snow-covered landscape. The dense<br />
forests, rugged peaks, mighty glaciers (p. 22) and<br />
lively cities are truly impressive when viewed from<br />
up high.<br />
MOUNTAIN<br />
Conquering Switzerland’s<br />
mountains under your own power.<br />

One of my favourite things to do is to perch on a<br />
branch in the forest and watch the world go by.<br />
So I can tell you all about the people who scale<br />
mountains on skis only to glide down the untouched<br />
slopes (p. 10). I’ve been told it almost feels<br />
like you’re flying! People seem to have a great time<br />
tobogganing too (p. 42). You can hear their laughter<br />
echoing through the forest. I’m often astounded by<br />
these icy adventurers; the bravest of them will even<br />
dare to climb vertical walls of ice (p. 25). And these<br />
people don’t seem to tire even at night, as they make<br />
their way through the beautifully lit alleyways of<br />
villages and towns.<br />

HOUSE<br />
Listening closely to<br />
the stories of the old walls.<br />

I have put together the most beautiful stories just<br />
for you in this magazine. Browse through the winter<br />
tales and set off on an adventure of your own in<br />
the fresh air. Then come back to me in the forest –<br />
you’ll find me under the leafy crown of the big oak<br />
tree. I’d love to hear the tales you have to tell.<br />
Safe travels!<br />
