As a cheese lover and bank apprentice, Dennis Frasch was well on his way to fulfilling all the clichés of a Swiss. Until he was told that he should think carefully about the impression he was making on his boss with his critical questions. Now he is a cheese lover and journalist. As a freelance reporter, he loves the thrill: he writes reports on sinking islands in Tunisia, conscripted men in the Ukraine and gang violence in El Salvador. But the real life on the edge can be found elsewhere: although he lives in the most expensive city in the world, he also writes for German newspapers such as Die Zeit and FAS.
