Sneak "Peak"

What is Swiss Miss working on these days? A feature article for a Swiss magazine...about death! Cheery, I know. I'm looking at alternatives to traditional funeral practices, and I have plunged into a very interesting (and sometimes very odd) world.

I'll let you do your own Googling, if you're interested, but here are the highlights:

Swiss DNA Bank.com
Store your memories -- and DNA -- in a military-built, nuclear-proof shelter in the Swiss Alps.

Urne.ch
Where urns become contemporary art objects.

Friedwald.ch
Bury your loved one's ashes in a forest, rather than a cemetery.
Promessa.se
Dying to be green? Freeze-drying bodies = eco-burial. Coming soon to Switzerland???Sometimes I really like my job. :)
