Whenever you're dreaming of cosmopolitan cities, glistening lakes, and verdant mountain vales—that's the best time to visit Switzerland. If the mood strikes you to dip into Lake Geneva in the summertime, or cozy up in the winter for a dinner of raclette-covered everything, you need to go to Switzerland as soon as you can.

I traveled to Sweden's Dalarna and returned home with a horse. It stands about five inches tall, with a pleasing curve of the muzzle and dainty fetlocks, though an unkind person might say it looks bovine from a certain angle. I whittled it while sitting on a log beneath tall spruces, warmed by the fire that Alfred Blomberg, a local farmer, had assembled in moments.

How the lake behind us freezes so solid in winter a horse could gallop across it; how, in summer, he takes his cows to mountain pasture to give them a holiday; and how he was a slingshot champion in his youth, carving his own catapult and traveling all around Sweden. It was a scene that could have taken place at any time in the past century.
