HELP! Need Input and Photos re. Switzerland/USA

I have to make a presentation about working collaboration between USA and Switzerland. If you can give me some input about:

- differences between USA/Switzerland and NewYork/Zürich
- comparison USA/Switzerland and New York/Zurich
- fun facts about the two countries/cities (brown sugar etc.) from both views

If you have Photos of Switzerland and/or US as well as from Zürich and New York which you would share for free (or maybe a beer or two) please PM me (f.e. the frosted vehicles at Lake Geneva, pictures from the nasty blizzard in the US last year).

I will be forever grateful.

P.S. I tried the search function but...

Re: HELP! Need Input and Photos re. Switzerland/USA

for frosted vehicles type "versoix" into the news search in Google.

I've got a few myself but not very well framed due to
1) I was freezing and had to take my gloves off to hit the shutter
2) there were hundreds of 5 yr olds everywhere
