I mean, even though USD is a popular currency: does the PPP hold up in Switzerland? The thing is that, despite having $10,000 (CHF 7905) in their budget, that still won't cut it since there is a bottle of liquor that costs CHF 100,000 ($126,755) for example.

Don't even mention restaurant prices, it's ridiculous that buying from the supermarket is cheaper. Have you been there? If so, is it even a wonderful country to visit despite how expensive it is for tourists? (Explains why barely anyone goes there).

ha! Don't be mistaken, we do that too in Switzerland. Gastronomy is one of the lowest paying fields in Switzerland as well I think.
