a week in zurich🇨🇭cute local spots 🍃summer nights, swan lake, swiss food, day trip to the alps

Good afternoon everyone, I just got to Zurich. Changed into a new outfit because I wanted to dress like a city girl. I got this ribbed tank top on, these jeans which I've tied with a ribbon here because Oasis is getting really big for me. Charles and Kate bag, this Santa Monica cap that I'm wearing for the first time, I really like this colour. Jewellery is all from Mejuri. One last thing before I headed out, I just wanted to show you guys the view from my apartment. Look at this! I have like a 180 degree view I think of the city behind me. Got a beautiful park over here, some stunning clouds in the background and then I think this way is probably the airport, if I'm not mistaken. We have made it into the city, first stop is Sternen Grill, apparently this place does really good bratwurst, so we're going to get some for lunch. Look at this blue sky guys. So I ordered the currywurst over here and then she also recommended like their smoky bratwurst. This is the mustard sauce that comes with it, as well as the bread. I'm going to hide in the shade a bit. I think I should try the original flavour first, without the mustard. Oh my god, that's so good! Time to eat! Dip in some of the mustard, mmm! Kate accidentally making eye contact with this guy sitting opposite me, I'm like standing at a bar table or something right now, there's like pleated tables opposite me. He took the last table but then saw me standing and he's like, do you want to sit? Which is like, so nice of him but also like, I'm shy, filmed this right in front of him and he was like, no it's okay, I'll just stand. So now it's just really awkward because I'm standing directly opposite him and he has three free seats at his table and I'm refusing to sit down. So this is the currywurst, this is the one that I really really wanted to try, mmm! So delicious. I'm not sure you get the bread though, but the bratwurst is amazing. Okay guys, I'm literally walking away with one and a half bread rolls wrapped in napkins, I'm feeling very very Asian right now. But this is for the swans! And it's literally... Bread is coming! Oh my god! Hi! Just finished dishing out all my bread to the hungry swans that made me so happy, like that actually felt like a Disney princess moment. Zurich Opera House. It really is so beautiful here, I love it so much. Thank you! The wait for that was insane, I think it was like a 15-20 minute wait for this, like that store is so cool. Okay guys, let's try! I think I need to mix it up first but it tastes amazing, I got it with the oat milk. I'm really just so thirsty, I don't think I've like drunk any water all day. There's something about that kind of old world feel that's like so magical. I just made it to Lindenhof, this is a really famous lookout, it's actually the filming location of Crash Landing on You. After I watched that drama, I said I'd make it to Switzerland one day. And I'm here! Hi guys, today is day two in Zurich. It's an editing day for me so I've just found a cafe to sit down. I'm editing the Paris vlog at the moment, it should be up already by the time you guys see this. So if you haven't watched it already, make sure to go check it out. I love Paris so much, I have been inspired to learn a little French. I just want to be able to like read and pronounce things properly next time I visit. So I actually have a lesson with my French tutor, Maha in a bit.

I'm going to get ready for my class now. It's starting in like two minutes and then we're going to get back to editing. So I will see you guys tomorrow. Good morning, everyone. Today, I am heading out to meet Hyun. I actually forgot that she moved to Switzerland until two days ago. So I just messaged her on Kakao Talk. Today is a Saturday and she doesn't have work. We are going to hang. First stop for today is going to be a cafe that one of my friends opened this week called... I think it was Magnolia in Bloom. It looks really pretty. There's lots of plants everywhere, cute cakes. Yeah, I'm going to end that first and then... Fit for today. And then I'm also bringing a hat because it is going to be a very sunny day. Everywhere is still setting up shop for the day. I feel like I'm dressed for a different season than everyone else. Like it's 23 degrees today, which is like nice warm summer weather, right? But then everyone is dressed for winter. Like they're all wearing coats and like sweaters and hoodies. I'm a little confused. We are here. Magnolia in Bloom. 2018, right? Fix you. You look so cute today. Thank you. Oh my god, it's like the one time you didn't have to dress nice. Oh, what a small world. I know. Cheers! Would you introduce what they are? This is the sausages with a side of vegetables. This is rösti, so kind of a little bit like we say Swiss gamjajeon. This is like a very typical Zurich thing. It's veal and mushroom in like a creamy sauce. It's really good. It's my favorite. Oh, this is like sauce for the sausages. It's cordon bleu. And this is like a very like typical mountain dish. Hoppin' macaroni. Quite heavy, very cheesy, but good. Thank you! What is georeum? But like what is it? It's just like a Korean explanation for everything. It's like this German dish. People were like, oh, this is basically just jokbal. I haven't had vegetables for so long. John just keeps feeding me the vegetables. This is what love feels like. But you do need a nap after this. It does feel like home, doesn't it? You're right, it does. That's why I was around as well. That's why I like it. I've seen this view a thousand times, but I love it. Oh, my first funicular ride. I didn't even know what these things were called before. I know, I know, right? We're going to crash. I just look like we're going to crash. Oh my god, I think it's really cute. Do you do like tourist content? I just film whatever I do in my life. Oh, thank you. That has the biggest clock face in Europe. That's St. Louis Church. Other mint one that's more in the distance is Raumunster. So it used to be run by women. And then the one with the two towers is Solsthmuster. So that's the biggest church in Zurich. That's the University of Zurich. Hyang is giving me a little mini tour of her old uni. But the thing is, I feel like the most famous thing at this university, apparently it's called Einstein's Locker. So he studied here before. And then they preserved his locker. And this girl doesn't know where it is. Is it in this building? Yeah, but usually these doors open automatically. But they just didn't open today. Is it because it's the weekend? Try the front entrance. Was that not the front entrance? It was the side entrance. Oh, okay. It's a really big building. Everything looks like I turned on max saturation. So pretty. We failed at finding Einstein's Locker. So we're heading back down now. I thought it wouldn't open. I know. We literally tried like a door on every single side of the building. What was it meant to be? Stop by here first. Look, your bag is so cute. Thank you. I did it myself. Oh my god. I was literally going to say like, did you make it yourself? Well, I crocheted it. But it was nice. It's the first thing I crocheted. Hi, look at the one. It looks so like good quality. You're a designer. A quick picture. Oh my god, you look like a little fairy. Kanye is really taking me to the local spots. Kanye. Hugo or Aperol Spritz. That's cute. But it's cuter when they're matching. You understand me. I would say like cute because it's like kind of like green and like concrete and yellow. And like the Hugo Spritz might match the black. We're putting so much thought into it. Okay, let's do Hugo here, Aperol there. Okay, nice. Trying Hugo Spritz, which is elderflower spritz. This first time. Oh, that's so refreshing. Oh, it really feels like summer right now. An outdoor party hosted by Hive, which is apparently one of the biggest clubs in Zurich. It's not usually here. They have like an indoor location. But they're doing a party here today. My friend Zoe. He's a nice guy. Lovely people. Good to meet you. Hi. I know. I also didn't say my name. Romeo, nice to meet you. What's your name? Cassie. Nice to meet you. Oh, there are two Asians over here. Hi. Oh, there are two only Asians. Oh, it's the occasional. What are you doing? Oh my god. Yeah. Yeah, Lina's playing. She cooked the tteokbokki for us. I'm back in Korea. What is this? What? 2018 or something. Dessert time. Springly chalk orange cake. Oh really? There's like orange jelly bits in it. This I think the easiest for you to explain. It's soft. It's springly like the Swiss is in place. I think it's better. It's more like the Swiss passion 5. Hello guys. Long time no see. Literally just been editing all day. But this cabbage has cooked for me. Tonight's menu is pat galbi. It smells so good. Hyun also introduced me to Zauza. Or Zuza. Zuza. Wait, which one is the right way of saying it? Zauza is the high German. Zuza is the Swiss German. Yeah, so what she said. And this is... She introduced this as baby wine. So it's like not fully fermented wine. It's like 1.5% alcoholic. I think that's even better than izutoktok. So I'm like this is basically non-alcoholic. I got like a crash course before I came to Seoul. From your mom? Yeah. And the rest I figured out through YouTube. I tried to pull an all-nighter last night. Because I have a very long video to edit. And I ended up taking a three-hour nap. That's actually not that much less than me. Because I slept like five and a half hours. The editing didn't go well. But we are now on our way to Stus. You made progress. I did. It's now sub 40 minutes from nine hours. Just went to the supermarket to pick up some breakfast. And some coffee. Are you seeing this? The view is crazy. We're off the mountain right now. Every time we're like oh my god look at the view. Oh my god look at that house. She's like that's so typical. Like you can see them everywhere. It's so beautiful. Oh my gosh. The grass is so green. Are those cows? There's cows. There are cows. Of course there's cows. There are cows. Heading on this funicular to go up. To run out stock. The world's steepest funicular. We made it to Stus. Bambi challenge. We have reached the star. Oh my god it's so soft. Thank god Hyun had clothes for me to borrow. Otherwise it would be freezing up here. I was like when you were gonna wear just your red cardigan. I was like what? Just like one piece of heat tech and a red cardigan. And she was like... Two crazy girls who keep taking their coats off for the nice photos. But my red cardigan really looks so much better in photos than wearing a black coat. If you know what I mean. The things we do for photos. I know. I think this is the peak of the mountain. Heading up. Dinner is done. My feet are getting cold now. It's going to be very cold. Oh my gosh. Buffet views. This lunch with the view is crazy. Say it again.
