A chalet in the Swiss Alps

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Hello Friday - woohoo! A dream weekend for me is all about planning great escapes to rural outposts. So this Friday it had to be some kind of cabin tour to celebrate the end of the week. And I've got just the thing. <a href="http://www.montagne-alternative.com/en/" target="_blank">Montagne Altarnative </a> are farm buildings which have been converted into contemporary living areas in the heart of a medieval village in the Swiss Alps. The renovations have been painstakingly carried out with passion, dedication and openness to integrate harmoniously with the rugged mountains and beautiful nature beyond. Weekend in the Swiss Alps anyone?!<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk6ErhqY1ze2-mP1UUfZwuqereqJkw-yLA1shS7-cTqcpDoDVhvUEMNUVNqEW8iXc9bSdf3imA7_YwQQjLsI5Yr6WDg-wevYwYKVMnKIlHFqt0gcVF3dWsUo-wbAqpn_lZ-51u2B2gD3v9/s1600/bliss1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
