A Business Insider reporter traveled to six European cities, and her favorite destination was a small town outside Zurich.

• During a two-week backpacking trip in Europe, I booked an Airbnb in a small town in Switzerland.
• Roggwil is a village filled with grassy fields, quiet neighborhoods, and mountain landscapes.
• The town turned out to be a hidden gem and my favorite destination on the trip.

The last night of my two-week trip to Europe was the best one.
