Our Gear:
We travel with a Microsoft Surface everywhere we go. I edit my videos on it & use it to backup my pictures and vides while we travel. It’s light and the best travel laptop on the market in my opinion.
We use Sony Alpha series cameras to film our videos. They are compact so you don’t look like a super tourist when you take great pictures and videos while you travel.
We use Manfrotto Tripods. They are compact, travel well, and honestly I would not use another tripod for my nice cameras.
Travel Plug that works in pretty much any country & has four USB ports. A must for any traveler.
Want to grab some great gear? We have used Osprey Packs for years & swear by them. Check them out here
Need some clothing for your next adventure? Patagonia has some pretty good stuff for all kinds of travelers.

Switzerland Travel Tips: 10 Things to Know Before You Go to Switzerland
Things you need to know before you travel to Switzerland. After you watch this video you'll be well prepared for a vacation or work trip to Switzerland. EXPAND DESCRIPTION FOR FULL TABLE OF CONTENTS: 1. Switzerland has 4 official languages - German, French, Italian, and Romansh. Zurich and Lucerne Speak German. Geneva speaks French. The South of Switzerland speaks Italian. But the good news for you as a tourist is almost everybody speaks English too.
2. Hours in Switzerland
- Switzerland is an early country
- Cafes open early
- Stores close early
- Some cities know a thing called - evening shopping literally translated. Shops are open until 21:00 (9 PM) on one evening per week - in Zürich, this happens on Thursday.
- And nearly everything is closed on Sunday (except the trains and shops in train stations)
3. Transportation in Switzerland
- Really good public transit
- Always on time
- Swiss Pass
- Download the SBB App
- Second Class is pretty good
4. Money in Switzerland
- They don’t use the EUR, they use the Swiss Franc (CHF) but you can exchange Euro at any bank, airport, and most railway stations. ATMs are known as “Bancomats”
5. Switzerland is Expensive
- Yes, what you’ve heard about Switzerland being expensive is right. It is.
- Pizza $30
- Mcdonalds $15
- Minimum wage of $25 an hour
6. Swiss Food
- Eat the chocolate and cheese
- Drink the milk
- All things Dairy
- lunch specials 10-19 CHF.
- Ethnic Restaurants like Chinese, Middle Eastern, Indian, or Thai for the best deals (and closer to 10 CHF).
- Don’t be late for a dinner reservation -- after 15 minutes you should forget you even had it
7. Switzerland is Small
- Population of 8 Million
- 1/10 the size of California
- But many mountains so travel is slow
- Geneva to Zurich Driving is 3 hours
8. Weather
- Quite varied because of the Alps
- In the West it’s windy and wet because of the Atlantic Ocean
- South is significantly warmer
- Summer can be up to 35C or 95F -- zero degrees depends on elevation, between 2000 Meters and 4000 Meters.
- Each Mountain has it’s own website -- check the mountain website to decide whether to go or not
- High elevation so wear sunscreen
9. Water
- Skip the bottled water -- drink the tap water
- Fountains on almost every corner
10. Recycling
- 8 different trash cans at a supermarket

After living in Switzerland for one year. 3 things I like and 2 I do not.
Unfortunately the contest is now over.????
Berdie Powell takes home the Bug A Salt!
Thank you all for entering!
There are a lot of things to love about living in Switzerlandut there are also a lot of things that are not so great. so today we are talking about three things that I love about Switzerland and two that I do not. Wait I forgot. Today we are also giving away this Bug a Salt gun. Number one. The outdoors. Switzerland is the most beautiful place that I have ever been to. the way the mountains look with the lakes and everything. It is just so pretty. Pictures do not do this place justice. But fortunately, you don't just have to look at pictures in Switzerland there are so many ways to get outdoors. There is hiking there is biking there is rockclimbing everywhere. There are these via ferratas that go up the rock faces also if you are not quite into rock climbing, you can go paragliding. If you name it Switzerland has got it. If you are not into this whole exercising thing you can go on these trams that go up the mountain. or these cable cars or the faries that go on the lakes. There is no reason that you cannot get outdoors in Switzerland it is amazing. If you live in Switzerland and you are not getting outside you are making a bad life decision. Why would you even live in Switzerland if you are not getting outside? that is the number one reason to live in Switzerland. It is so amazing. Switzerland is old. There are a lot of old buildings there are a lot of old towns and old roads, and really old history. If you are from Europe then this is just normal but I am From the USA. And in the US if you just go back a few hundred years history descends into a mystery. We don't really know what was going on in the USA 1000 years ago. History is one of my favorite parts about living in Switzerland. If you are visiting a castle or something it is crazy to think about all of the people that came before you that put in that work to build these structures. We don't remember most of their names. It is kind of humbling to think about. Number 3. Switzerland is a tinny little country that is l
Es gibt viele Dinge, die man am Leben in der Schweiz lieben sollte, aber es gibt auch viele Dinge, die nicht so toll sind. Heute sprechen wir über drei Dinge, die ich an der Schweiz liebe, und zwei, die ich nicht liebe. Warten Sie, ich habe es vergessen. Heute verschenken wir diesem Bug auch eine Salzpistole. Nummer Eins. Draußen. Die Schweiz ist der schönste Ort, an dem ich je gewesen bin. wie die Berge mit den Seen und allem aussehen. Es ist einfach so hübsch. Bilder werden diesem Ort nicht gerecht. Aber zum Glück muss man sich in der Schweiz nicht nur Bilder ansehen, es gibt so viele Möglichkeiten, ins Freie zu kommen. Es gibt Wandern, es gibt Radfahren, es gibt überall Klettern. Es gibt diese über Klettersteige, die die Felswände hinaufsteigen, auch wenn Sie nicht ganz auf Klettern stehen, können Sie Paragliding betreiben. Wenn Sie es nennen, hat die Schweiz es. Wenn Sie sich nicht für dieses ganze Training interessieren, können Sie mit diesen Straßenbahnen den Berg hinauf fahren. oder diese Seilbahnen oder die Faries, die auf den Seen fahren. Es gibt keinen Grund, warum man in der Schweiz nicht draußen sein kann. Es ist erstaunlich. Wenn Sie in der Schweiz leben und nicht nach draußen kommen, treffen Sie eine schlechte Lebensentscheidung. Warum würden Sie überhaupt in der Schweiz leben, wenn Sie nicht nach draußen kommen? Das ist der Hauptgrund, in der Schweiz zu leben. Es ist so unglaublich. Die Schweiz ist alt. Es gibt viele alte Gebäude, es gibt viele alte Städte und alte Straßen und wirklich alte Geschichte. Wenn Sie aus Europa sind, ist das ganz normal, aber ich komme aus den USA. Und in
