The best part of switzerland
Welcome to Our Home in Chur, Switzerland!
Our cozy single-family home is located in a quiet residential area, just a short walk from shops, restaurants, and public transportation. You can easily reach Zurich Airport, St. Moritz, Davos, Flims/Laax, or even visit Italy, Austria, and Germany (Lake Constance and Lake Zurich are about an hour away).
Chur is a warm and beautiful city, perfect for outdoor activities like hiking, skiing, mountain biking, and more.
Our house, built in 1939, has:
2 bedrooms
A living room and kitchen
1 bathroom upstairs and a separate toilet downstairs
2 balconies with sunset views
A large garden with fruit trees and space for badminton or street soccer.
My home is my life project because there is always something to renovate. Like many pieces of furniture in the house, many things have a story, some tell of my ancestors, others of trips to foreign countries.
The forest is just steps away, great for jogging, hiking, or a walk to the historic town center and the beautiful 13th-century cathedral. The town center and train station are just five minutes away by foot or bus.
We look forward to welcoming you!

Chur (pronounced /koor/) is the capital of the Graubünden canton, and is also the oldest continuously settled city in Switzerland. Originally it was believed that the history of the city went back approximately 5,000 years – ‘Chur’ comes from the Celtic word kora or koria (clan, tribe). However, recently a landlord who was building an underground garage in the neighborhood below the cathedral got the surprise of his life when they discovered archeological remains that dated back approximately 13,000 years.
In Roman times, as well as more recently, Chur was an important outpost along the north-south trade routes. Although many parts of the original Roman city wall are now gone, there are still remnants around the old city center, as well as a couple of the gate towers. Much of the old town has buildings dating from 1464 to the mid 1500’s.
Language
Reflecting its history, the city is trilingual, speaking a mix of German, Italian, and Romansh (a Latin derivative).
Here are some words in Romansh - easy to learn for you:
curiosity = MIRVEGLIAS
gift = REGAL
Loveaffair = AFFERA D'AMUR
Who is who in Graubünden

the world most famos Grison-Girl AND Boy are

Geography
The city sits in a gorgeous glacial valley where the Plessur and Rhine rivers meet. Warmed by the föhn southern winds, Chur has the HIGHEST mean temperature in Switzerland. It also has its own summer/winter recreation area served directly by cable car from the town center – the Hausberg Brambrüesch rises to 2,176 meters above the town.
Approximately 90 minutes from Zürich, Chur sits at the gateway to Graubünden – home of the most famous skiing resort towns in Switzerland. Additionally, the Bernina and Glacier Express trains depart from Chur’s train station, as does the Bernina PostBus.

Grüazi mitanand
Welcome! We are a family - creativ and open minded .
We have two daughters and two sons.
All four are independent and have moved out.
And I'm very proud to be a grandma of 6 little miracles.
I would love to explore the world, cultur, food, natur... and learn how life will be anywhere else. Perhaps my sister will join me.
I love cozy evenings on the sofa and adventures in nature. That's why we treat the environment as well as the home - in every country on earth - with respect
Important: We own two cats which are very independent. The cats don't need to fed every day.
