Why study in Lucerne
Study in Lucerne, not only a HUB for tourism!
Every day thousands of tourists are strolling around beautiful Lucerne, sipping coffee after extensive shopping or after a nice walk along Lake Lucerne's shoreline.
Lucerne has established a reputation as a worldwide tourism hub and its monuments such as the modern KKL building and famous wooden medieval Chapel bridge are well known all over the world. Lucerne, like no other city really represents the "chocolate side" of Switzerland.

The name of this site, khymos, is Greek meaning "juice". However, it is related to al-kimiya, the Arabic word from which our word chemistry derives from. Other related words include Khemia, the old name of Egypt (meaning land of black earth) and the Greek khein and khymatos meaning "to pour" and "that which is poured out" respectively. So in a sense, the word khymos provides a link between chemistry and food! I therefore thought it would be a suitable name for a site dealing with molecular gastronomy and related subjects. | Rick Stein Seafood - For uses of European seafood's and fish, nobody does it better than Rick Stein.
