Welcome to Wander We Go. I’m Alex.
I write about life in Zürich, travels throughout Europe, and musings on both.
All in Life in Zurich
In the past five years, I’ve done a lot here in Switzerland. I’ve hiked more trails than I can count. I’ve watched the snowman explode during Sechseläuten, fully embraced nude sauna culture, cheered for the cows parading down the alp in their flower crowns, danced at Street Parade and Züri Fäscht (twice!), ran the Zürich half-marathon. But today, I thought it would be fun to recount a few things that, even after five years, I haven’t gotten around to yet.
Raunaq and I have lived in Zurich for over two years, and while we are by no means experts, we have figured out a few things. While this guide is (hopefully!) useful for first-time visitors to the city, it also includes all of our favorite bars, restaurants, cafe and things to do - so maybe even if you live here, you’ll learn about a new place.
