Ah… The art of living in the mountains! Or how is seen the “Yaute way of life” from elsewhere. 100% tested: we have heard green and unripe ones! But we decided to laugh about it! So, leaving to discover our most beautiful pictures, or?
Cliché n ° 1: the Haut-Savoyard lives in a chalet
All the Haut-Savoyards would live in chalets in the mountains: ideal for setting off on skis as soon as you wake up! Unfortunately, we live in houses and apartments. Yes, we know, it's disappointing!
Cliché n ° 2: the Haut-Savoyard owns a cow or a goat
All the Haut-Savoyards would own a cow or at least a goat. To do what ? To make their own cheese of course! Normal, the city dweller has a dog. What could be more logical when you live in a chalet than owning a cow! Yes, in the Yaute we have the pastures, but not always the cows that go inside!
Cliché n ° 3: the Haut-Savoyard fights against the cold all year round
All the Haut-Savoyards would fight against the cold and sometimes join civilization at the risk of their lives. Snow would be our daily life, 10 months out of 12. This is why we drink hooch: to warm us up! Well no. Summer also exists in the mountains: with us the great outdoors is summer as well as winter.
Cliché n ° 4: the Haut-Savoyard eats raclette all year round
All Haut-Savoyards would only dream of having a little raclette, even in summer, at 40 ° C. Well yes, we offer raclette all year round, but only tourists have the courage to eat one in summer!
Cliché n ° 5: the Haut-Savoyard puts Y everywhere
All the Haut-Savoyards would put “ys” everywhere to punctuate their sentences. But what a cliché! Ah well no, in fact, it may be a little true ...
Well yes, it is not wrong! We like to talk about it like that, you have to get used to it!
