Taking back-roads and stuff when I can find my way. Iono. Google Maps says it's only like, 5 24-hour-days of drive time, leaving in theory 25 days for sleep and tourism.
you talk about taking rural back roads etc... and then google says it's only 5 24hrs !! guess what.. that is highway driving I'm sure

marseille to Geneva on highway would be about 6 hours (without pee breaks ) plus another 3 to Zurich ...

on the backroads?... that leg of the trip is a full day driving in itself again without pee breaks, gas breaks, food, and asuming you don't get stuck behind a french farmer with a tractor load of parsnips
