Follow these Instagramers before moving to Switzerland

One way to learn more about a country is by going to the library and picking up a pile of books.

We love books, so we still follow this tried and true method despite living in a digital world. But without a doubt, Instagram & Co. have gained lots of street cred in recent years. Think of a place and you will find countless photographs shared by others. By nature, they are more up-to-date than any book. On the other hand, nobody is going to take the burden off of your shoulders of scrambling through countless photographs shared by others.

Except for Newly Swissed. We have browsed the collective pool of Instagram photographs about Switzerland to present to you the best. In our humble opinion, we think that anyone moving to Switzerland should follow the following accounts:
