I knew that Japan and norway are very expensive countries but i don't understand how Zurich can be less expansive than paris.

i'm happy that Greece is not in that list. I don't know why, but greeks don't appreciate fast food that much, and when it comes to fast food, people prefer other brands (greek or not). BTW, 2.49 dollars for a hamburger is way too much...

too bad for your stomach. You should try a little bit of greek souvlaki, but i suggest you leave all those things and switch to greek musaka, pastitsio, giouverlakia, and all the other tasty foods.

BTW, i spend too much money in food, because i really enjoy it. Many nights i go with dad to a restaurant, since he appreciates food even more than me. But i'm still in a very good shape!
