FAQs

Hello Rooster, why are you the logo of Howdy Heidi?

Glad that you asked! Let me turn the question around: Why are you listening to a rooster? Because I’ve got something to crow about! I am a Swiss Rooster and I have been chosen to be your spokesperson for HowdyHeidi and like a true Swiss, I carry my Swiss Cross on my chest. As the King of the barnyard I’ll be yodeling you “with a very strong pitch” on all the fabulous news from Switzerland and I’ll make you twitter like a songbird.

Who knows the most about Switzerland? Who can help if I want to find some travel resources?

It’s easy, just follow-me! I am happy telling you about all that’s fab and cool going on in Switzerland. Even though I think I am pretty barn good I’ll give you a little insider tip: my colleagues from Switzerland Tourism can put a feather in their cap, they are pretty knowledgeable about Switzerland too, and darn, they come with all their Swiss smarts and looks!

Is Switzerland really Neutral?

From a totally neutral point of view – absolutely NOT! I’m pretty cock-sure those hot Swiss Misses and Dudes actually believe that they have the most gorgeous mountains, freshest air and even best public transport system in the world! Even worse, during lunch-break they swim in their lakes and rivers and drink the water right from it! Well, since they are still alive I must assume the waters must be more than clean. Question remains: who is more on time,  the Swiss or their watches? Those Swiss never lay an egg when it comes to being punctual.

How can I become a sponsor on your site?

Simply send a yodel our way, we don’t expect you to be a true Swiss nor a Swiss sponsor… but you better be in love with Switzerland!!!
