Do Liechtensteiners like Molvanians?
I've heard from fellow Molvanians that they were treated as tho they didn't exist on a recent trip to Liechtenstein. I'll be going there next month for a polka contest, and want to know whether I should take defensive measures, like wearing a dirndl, or carrying a wedge of Swiss cheese. Comments?

Hmmm, it seems to me tomboy that if you paste some Canadian Flags symbols on your backpack when going to Liechtenstein you will be treated just fine. It seems everyone, and I mean everyone, loves the Canadians. Might not be a bad idea to wear a TShirt with the MapleLeaf on it even when donning your dirndl..double insurance as it were.

I rather fear most Liechtensteiners perceive most Molvanians to be rather more redolent than that even without the cheese. It's those shoes, you know.
Plus, of course, they offer few marketing opportunities for Liechtenstein's other famous products - false teeth (of no value in the land where gappy gums are the mark of marriageability) and postage stamps (postcards are like catnip to a Molvanian donkey).

Perhaps you should bring along your moosehead hat to insure your being taken for "canadian"...
Don't forget to have your teeth checked by their world renowned dentists!
And definitely pack the dirndl with some cheese so it has the odor on it when you arrive!
Send postcards please!

I asked sometimes in the past that question to Liechtensteiners, and all the answers I got were: "Whattt??? Never heard".
My conclusion is that this is a denial defense mechanism. You should expect to listen answers like that.

Liechtenstein is not known for its cheese. It's about secret bank accounts (I know lots of Swiss who keep their financial secrets there), the Prince of Liechtenstein and power tools. They make some nice stamps too.
Sometimes we drive through Liechtenstein (Feldkirch) to get to Austria.

Hello dear Lobo,
Yes, I do. As a result of all those Molvanians storming the Prince's wine cellar and emptying all of its contents (they were looking for the bank vault), the public is no longer allowed to tour the castle.
