Summary/Abstract: Polish version of the text written for the Lausanne-based paper „Bulletin de l’Association culturelle pour le voyage en Suisse” for an issue devoted to Polish travelers and Polish travels in Switzerland. Jerzy Stempowski – an eminent Polish essayist who has spent almost a half of his life in Switzerland and wrote about this country on several occasions – is presented here from a very personal point of view of the author, who used to live in Switzerland for over 25 years, first as a Polish diplomat, then as a Slavist teaching at the University of Fribourg.
