It is indeed an amazing country! The nature is absolutely beautiful and there are so many little villages that are perfect to get away and relax . Austria is very similar and the Bavarian part of Germany as well I think!
If you want to visit Switzerland make sure you do around october, the prices can sometimes be cut by half by staying at a chalet, or hotel since there arent that many people going on holidays at that time!
The area called Berchtesgadener Land - that is where AH had his eagle's nest home - is what looks a bit like switzerland in Bavaria. Take a look
I tended to go from the lake level up the mountains on hiking tours there - no roads, no people, nothing, just nature - with an emergency radio, to pick me up in the case of an emergency - hiking alone in about 2300-3000m height for a couple of days - just me and nature - wonderful.
I've been to the remains of the Berghof.It sits on the Obersalzberg.There's only parts of it left now.We had to walk up there,(nearly killed me D)and there is a Hotel too.Something Türken.Cant recall it's name.
You could have used AH's golden elevator which leads directly up into the Berghof as well. No walking required.

- during hot summer weather I do this with salads, tomatoes, lemon slices, watermelon etc.
Pizza and most other food I have decent control over myself with, I mean if I want to eat more then I eat more. I don't automatically reach for it with my hands and stuff my mouth, like I do with nuts lol
<< the above is both for when I game and don't game.
oh yes, macadamia nuts, cashew - too additive that stuff.
I'm addicted to all kinds of nuts and seeds. Macadamia is a relatively new trend where I live though, so regular stores don't sell them. Here it's mainly roasted&salted: cashew, peanuts (with and without the red thin skin), pistachio.
Raw: hazelnuts, almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds.
I live in Denmark, and I have to travel to Sweden to buy fresh pistachio and almonds. They seem to have a much bigger selection of fruits, vegtables and nuts in regular stores. It's easier than looking for places sells them in Denmark

I love Macadamia nuts! When I lived in Hawaii we used to buy them all the time for around $1.99 a box.There was about 20 chocolate covered ones in it.Yummm!

And oh wow I never used that grill Normally it is just a little hot stone plate, where you put raclette slices with a spatula, but I am very sure in the grill that you showed it must taste better!
The US has for certain some very nice areas - I loved the north-west and west though, Washington State, Oregon, Montana, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada - well I like semi-deserts and mountains - and when both is combined I am happy, like in south africa - I even have 2 oceans nearby - cannot be better. Not to talk about the beauty of the kalahari desert and the white-sand dune desert of the Namib in the neighboring countries Namibia and Botswana.

Lets spice it up... You have to eat 3 packets of mentos after drinking the 6 cans... I wonder if anyone could stay glues to the chair after that xD

Smiles, I don't think that challenge is possible to complete. Seems like everyone on youtube gets sick before the hour is up.
New Challenge:
For 2 weeks eat nothing but oranges, drink only water and play PvP for 4 hours a day.

My neighbor would start to really look tasty if I would do this - he might end up as a steak on my grill.
Edit: But joke aside, how could you deal with this awful feeling in your stomage, starvation hurts.

If you take a blood sample and put it in a centrifuge, it looks normally like this
after pizza with a lot of cheese on top it looks like this
the difference is the fat in the plasma what makes it non-transparent.
You can eat fatty stuff, but not too much at once and not too often, or it will pretty much always look like this and you can imagine how this will mess up your veins and lead to all kind of unpleasant diseases.
This was my blood after eating half of a large pizza hut pizza and 2 bread sticks after gaming on Sunday.
ill leave it to your imagination what it looked like after it was processed.
How did you get your blood checked that fast??

Learn from the noob ( me ). When I game I come prepared and order a pizza like this.
Note: That person in the pic is an actual friend of mine, I think it was his birthday and that is the pizza they ordered.

I once ate a family sized pizza with all of my favorite toppings - and was sick for days after doing that. Just too much fat, that made me not want to move and I felt awfully stuffed. I won't do that again.
