Came to Zurich as a student at 22 for a 6 months internship - its 11 years later now and I just never left...

[@Antonia-uc1iv]

Christopher Moll i guess u really liked it heheh

[@moneyobsessed]

Hi Christopher, i am interested in moving to switzerland from Italy as Erasmus student. 21 here, can i have some of your knowledge/experience? Thanks

[@saladbowl85]

Giacomo Mosso what would you like to know? Honestly - dont come here at your young age. This city/country will mess up what you expect in terms of life quality, income and so on and will inhibit you from realizing some other plans of living/working elsewhere in the world. I say that half serious ;-) Cheers

[@simonsimic1825]

@@saladbowl85 im thinking about moving with a friend at the age of 23-24, can you be more specific please?

[@saladbowl85]

Simon Simic If you have a chance to come here, do it. Im just saying, you get spoiled here. But life in Switzerland with all its conveniences and the nature all around is pretty great. Depending on where you come from, a city like Zurich might seem small and people might seem hard to approach. Thanks to expat meetup groups on facebook etc. you’ll be able to meet likeminded people quickly. So just give it a shot and see what you think ✌🏽

As someone who was born and brought up in Zurich, I have to say that this is by far the best video of my hometown I've seen in a looong time. It is incredibly accurate and I would never have thought that people would be that amazed about Zurich. Excellent content 👌

@@shinjiharaguchi5460 I was born there and at the age of 7 , i was brought to Pakistan for Islamic Studies and because my relatives here . I will go there back after a year 😍 Life in Zürich is too expensive . Restaurants , cars , houses rent etc. But literally its such a beautiful city to live in . Transportation is also way too good . One thing i hate about it is that there is no Night Life . All grocery shops , malls etc. closes at 9-10pm and you will empty roads .

This is a beautiful city, I spent a week there with my wife just recently and loved it. I like to call it the Europe for the Europeans. It’s a notch above the Europe we know. Yes it is a bit pricey but well worth it. You get what you pay for. Clean city, precise transportation and great service everywhere you go. I’ll definitely go back.

[@stefanzweifel]

As a Swiss native, I never thought that visitors would love such basic things as the "Sternen Bratwurst" or the "Sonntags Zopf" 😂

[@Maurazio]

that's why it's important to market to extra-european tourists, they love different things that might not be amazing to europeans

When you have lived abroad as I did large chunks of my life, you learn to love and appreciate those Zürich specialties! When I get off a TGV from Paris, I often must have a Bratwurst (veal sausage) before even mounting a tram or other train.... Likewise with the Zopf, the best gift to bring me for my friends who visit are Swiss wines, on a Friday a Zopf, or Swiss cheeses and local honey.

[@writerconsidered]

Well now I understand the transit system I'll have to find another video on Zurich itself.

[@Nubianette]

writerconsidered 😆 That was a lot about transportation, and not enough about the city. But, my ex boyfriend from Zurich did complain that it was sterile and boring.

[@kikivolauvent1]

If you only want to have a 'wander about' in Zurich (city, w/o airport and other cities), buy a Tageskarte (day pass) for the zones 110 (Zurich counts as 2 zones) and you can do anything you like for the whole day from 05am to midnight. You can even take a boat cruise on the Limmat & a little part of Lake Zurich. You find any info you'll need on www.zvv.ch/zvv/en/travelcards-and-tickets/tickets/daypass.html, presently 1 day pass without any reductions is CHF8.80. Have fun!

[@yasminebubteina]

Tbh, ur better off ubering into the city , I usually stay in regendsdorf which is south of the airport , if ur 1 person take the ticket , if ur more than 1 person call an Uber because it’s like 12 francs per person

@Attaché: Worth adding as a ticketing pass is the Swiss Pass. It is more Switzerland wide than simply Zurich. It's about 250 CHF for 4 days and includes every transport and museums too. The Einstein museum in Bern is included. They accept Euros in notes and not coins. So be sure to have notes with you.

[@jumanjiwarlord]

I met some dudes in the lauterbrunnen valley who were doing the Swiss Pass thing, You can turn your Zurich trip into an entire Switzerland trip with the Swiss Pass. One guy took off on his own to the Einstein Museum in Berm. But how nice are the outdoor activities in the Alps? I think this dude is all about cities... sometimes you gotta get out of the city for the real gems.

As a Manhattanite, I can confirm: Zurich (and all of Switzerland) is un-be-lie-va-bly expensive. When we realized even cheap Chinese takeout was going to be well over $30 per person, we just decided to go to the supermarkets (Coop, Denner) and cook stuff in our Airbnb. It was actually kinda fun (and way more affordable) to grocery shop in a foreign country. Unrelated side note: Switzerland allows drinking in public, so skip the $$$$ bars, grab one of those big Feldschlösschen cans from a convenience store, and go for a stroll.

[@AlonsoRules]

Zurich Airport is the best in Europe Swiss trains are the best in the world. Only Japan comes close. Taxis are horrendously expensive. I think the drop fare was 10 CHF when I was there.

[@Hufsylt]

I feel Japanese trains are more reliable, more modern and comfortable and nothing beats Japanese service mentality... so I'm not quite so sure about that. However, in Europe, Switzerland certainly has one of the top train networks and some of the most beautiful train lines. Taxis in Zurich are scandalous. Apparently, they are the priciest in the world. Drivers often speak insufficient German and are not very helpful, sometimes even rude. Some cars are too old and often they don't feel very clean. If you are used to the service, knowledge and comfort London cabs offer, you'll be utterly shocked by Swiss standards. It is a far better idea to call an Uber in Zurich.
