Where to go in Switzerland

From snow-capped, thin-air mountain peaks to chilly, rocky rivers below, Switzerland presents outdoor adventurers with bracing challenges. From quiet cafes, shops and cozy accommodations in alpine villages to time-honored landmarks in the capital of Bern and cultural show places, monuments and historic sights in Geneva and Zurich, the tiny, pivotal country at the heart of Europe is a magnet for travelers of all ages and interests from around the globe.

Apart from motor and rail transport, a sojourn through Switzerland can be made by biking, hiking and backpacking. Spectacular sky lifts unveil the Alps in all their clear, sky-blue splendor.

Professional tours are carefully developed to show visitors Switzerland's most famous destinations. Alternate tour plans lead to lesser known but no less memorable attractions. Meanwhile, guides can point a guest to promising starting points for personal explorations, based on the visitor's special interests. Half-day, full-day and longer tours and excursion packages are available.

For visitors who wish to experience Switzerland hands-on, recreational outings include skiing, whitewater rafting and kayaking, canyoning, rappelling, aerial sightseeing and skydiving by helicopter, and paragliding.

Special tour attractions vary from "The Chocolate Side of Zurich" to Europe's greatest waterfall on the River Rhine to an excursion into the Grimsel Canyon.

  We visited Vienna at the end of February 2018. We arrived in Vienna at lunch time on a bus from Bratislava.

https://thewanderingboomerang.com/2018/04/16/bratislava/

The taxi from the bus station to our hotel was 15 euro. We stayed in 25 Hours Hotel after a long search on Air BNB and booking.com. I read about this hotel on a Vienna travel blog and made a note of it. I did my usual accommodation research and found that the Air BNB options were more expensive than 25Hours Hotel. The other hotels were also more expensive and old fashioned in comparison. I can’t recommend this place enough. It’s modern, the staff were friendly, it’s right beside the town hall/museum quarter and close to the metro.

The icing on the cake was the spa, the free yoga classes and the eco friendly shampoo and soap that was cruelty free! This hotel was made for me.

We stayed in the standard double room (98 euro). You can stay in a room with a bathtub on the balcony for 187 euro. Sadly that was out of our price range, but the outdoor bathtub nearly tempted me. I suggested we stay one night in the room with the bathtub and one night in the standard, but they don’t let you use the bathtubs in the winter months 😦

I should also note that I write this blog purely because I enjoy it and I don’t get paid to advertise hotels. I only recommend places I truly love. Thankfully they have hotels Berlin, Cologne, Dussledorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Munich, Paris and Zurich. I will definitely stay in 25Hours again in future.

https://www.25hours-hotels.com/en/hotels/vienna/at-museumsquartier

We checked into the hotel and walked to Naschmarkt. This outdoor market is 1 mile long and has been running since the 16th century. It was such good fun bantering with the vendors. They shout at you “where are you from” and “try this, it’s an aphrodisiac”. You will get bombarded by vendors giving you free tasters. We nearly had enough samples to fill us for lunch. They vast array of hummus and olives in all different flavours and colours is worth a visit alone. With plastic free fresh produce, falafels and walls of spices and teas it’s a vegans delight. Don’t miss this! On Saturdays they have a flee market at the end of the mile long strip. I was also pleased to find hot mulled wine stands along the market as it was below zero temperatures that day!

http://www.naschmarkt-vienna.com/

We walked to the Opera House in the hope of getting tickets, but we were unsuccessful. I would suggest researching online before your trip and booking in advance. The tickets can range from approximately 45-150 euro. You can get tickets for 3-4 euro if you are willing to spend half a day queuing for standing tickets, and then willing to stand for the entire show. It was a bitter cold day and our time was limited in Vienna, so we opted out! The queue is indoors for the most part.

We took a walk around and stumbled across Hofburg Palace and the Palmhaus. Go in for a nosey or make reservation to make sure you get a table.

Café Demel is another tick on the tourist list. You can walk in and buy from the shop or queue at the back to get a seat in this beautiful café. We didn’t fancy the queue and opted out!

After exploring on foot all we were exhausted and slightly numb. It was an extremely cold day, so we went back to the hotel to warm our bones in the sauna, before heading back out at night time to the Town Hall. Over the winter months this Town Hall Ice Rink runs daily. You can pay for the whole day of skating, but we were pretty wrecked after an hour of fast skating around the rink and through the trees. This was probably our highlight of Vienna. Do not miss this!

Thankfully our hotel was 5 minutes from the Town Hall or we nipped back to the hotel for dinner at 1500 Food Market. I was able to request a vegan pizza. We went up to the 25Hours hotel rooftop bar to check out the snowy balconies before bed. The restaurant and rooftop bar were busy. I reckon it’s a popular place for the locals at the weekend.

The hotel staff suggested we go to the Burggasse area for Breakfast. It was a 5 minute walk from the hotel. This is a popular place for the locals, and we had breakfast in das mobel café. It had vegan options on the menu and vegan brownies so I was in my element.

I ordered the vegan black bread (coloured with charcoal) with coconut carrot spread and pink chickpeas. Really delicious! I wish we had time to come back here so I could try the rest of the vegan options.

Burggasse is right beside the metro so we jumped on the train to Schonnbrun Palace.

Schonbrunn Palace is a UNESCO world heritage site. The palace has 1441 rooms, and Mozart played here at age 6. You can stay in the palace, if you are willing to part with a good chunk of your spending money.

We walked around the grounds in the snow and sunshine, and found ballet dancers, water features, a zoo, and a café in a monument at the top of the hill to the rear of the palace.

The grounds also have a palmhouse and botanic gardens (7 euro), an orangerie (3.50 euro), maze, labyrinth, playground (5.50 euro), Hapsburgian Imperial Stables and rose gardens, but we had tired ourselves out by then. You could easily spend a whole day here and it’s free to walk around. There’s an apple strudel show outside the Café Residenz every hour (6 euro). You get a sample, the recipe and a free hotline service when making it yourself at home and need help. They also have a panorama train that takes you around the grounds (7euro, 50mins). If you have a Vienna Pass everything is free!

We booked the short tour to go inside the palace and I got a sneaky photo inside the main hall. The audio guide for the tour was interesting and helpful to understand what you were looking at. Don’t do the tour without this!

14.50 euro (short tour 22 rooms)

17.50 euro (long tour, 40 rooms),

or free with a Vienna Pass.

We got the metro back into the city centre and jumped off at St. Stephens Church. It’s free in, but you pay to go to the roof in the smallest lift I’ve ever seen. If your claustrophobic, climb the 343 steps instead. I went up to see the tiled roof but be warned it was bitter cold up there. You can also do a tour of the catacombs below.

There’s also a rooftop bar called ‘Lamee‘ that has a free view of the church roof tiles, although you’ll have to buy a glass of wine or a coffee to sit there.

  We walked to Vegiezz for lunch. This is a chain vegan restaurant and we saw two on our walks around the city.

After a long day and a lot of walking, we went back to the hotel for our last go in the spa before dinner.

We went to Glasc briesl for dinner. It was a 5 minute walk from the hotel and suggested by the travel guides provided by the hotel. Good food and decent prices. The Vegan dish only 9.80 euro. I was surprised by the prices. I was warned how expensive Vienna was, but our most expensive meal was in Bratislava.

Our flights were in and out of Bratislava so we booked our train back to Bratislava for 10 euro. When booking the train back to Bratislava we booked online with ‘Go Euro’. It told us to use the ticket machines at the station and use the code to print our tickets. This didn’t work and we ended up in the help desk. They only printed them for us out of pity! I would suggest printing the tickets in your hotel or buy the tickets on the ‘OBB‘ website only. You can also buy tickets at machine in Haubanhof Train Station really easily. There was a Starbucks in the station with a vegan option! They had run out unfortunately. Bring food with you!

There were no vegan options in Bratislava airport! In fact the two food options left a lot to be desired. Eat before you go or bring food with you, vegan or not!

Roger Samara | 5 Ways to Enjoy Virtual Reality

Technology is probably one of the best creations human beings have ever made. Not only is technology able to connect people but also gives us exposure to sights, sounds, and feelings that we haven’t experienced in our lifetimes.

With Virtual Reality, technology now allows us to experience a close to life environment in an imaginary setting. As per Wikipedia, Virtual reality (VR) typically refers to computer technologies that use virtual reality headsets to generate the realistic images, sounds and other sensations that replicate a real environment or create an imaginary setting.

Though VR is still relatively new to the public, there are already a lot of different ways to enjoy VR. Here are some of the virtual settings and activities that you can experience:

1. Flying

Ever dreamed of flying? Well, here’s your chance to experience how it feels like. Using VR glasses, you will be able to fly. VR glasses presents to people a very realistic image or video that helps wearers build the momentum and excitement for the whole experience.

Aside from that, if you want to experience flying, you may try this new invention made by the researchers of Zurich University’s Interaction Design Program called Birdly. Birdly is a Virtual Reality console that allows a person to lie on a padded, cross-shaped apparatus and gives people the sensation of flying over buildings or across country sides.

2. Swimming

In other cases, a VR headset will also let you experience swimming. But it’s more than that. It will also let you feel what it’s like to be swimming under oceans with dozens of fish, sharks, and whales swimming around you. You will definitely feel like being underwater because you will be able to see and hear the beauty and sounds of these sea creatures.

3. Roller Coaster

If you’re just at home sitting on your couch and have got nothing to do, why not ride a roller coaster? Yes, it’s just that easy when you have your own VR headset! Start feeling the gravity as the coaster twists and turns upside down. There are many VR headsets that have built in games where you can truly experience an extreme roller coaster ride. There is also a simulator called “No Limits 2” which will let you experience roller coasters on a whole new level.

4. Skydiving

Skydiving is an extreme sport that some people can only dream of doing because it is really expensive. If you’re looking for a cheaper (and also much safer) way to experience skydiving, then VR is the way. Fly up to high altitudes with “Volo Airsport”, a physics simulator that lets people hang on to their life and experience skydiving.

5. Flight Zombies

If you are the type of person who is fascinated by the idea of a zombie apocalypse, then VR is your closest way to experience it. So, if you want to experience what it’s like to be in a scene of “The Walking Dead”, download “Zombie Shooter”. It is free on Apple and lets gamers to shoot and kill zombies that are chasing them through the VR headset.

Zece zile in Elvetia: Interlaken  #4

So, here we are (ce ne mai place romgleza) ... am ajuns in a doua parte a aventurii elvetiene din 2017: duminica, 17 septembrie ne suiam in tren in Zurich cu directia Interlaken, un orasel in centrul Elvetiei aflat intre doua lacuri (Brienz si Thun), ce poate fi o baza excelenta de explorare a Lauterbrunnen (una dintre cele mai spectaculoase zone ale Elvetiei din punct de vedere al peisajelor) dar si a zonei marginite de cele doua lacuri.

Si daca tot am vorbit de peisaje, cam tot drumul din Zurich la Interlaken a fost pe sistemul:

 Interlaken e genul ala de orasel care te entuziasmeaza de la prima vedere: plin de viata, cu restaurante multe, o zona comerciala in centru si multe activitati pentru cei mai curajosi (parapanta, skydiving, bunjee jumping, hanggliding) sau nu (plimbari cu vaporul pe cele doua lacuri, excursii de o zi, minigolf, hooters :) ). De cazat ne-am cazat la un han renovat complet (cea mai scumpa cazare din calatorie, dar si cea mai dubioasa) care in poze arata excelent, chiar si in realitate la prima vedere, pentru ca nu puteam anticipa mirosul de mucegai din baie si chiuveta aflata in camera :): Hotel Post Hardermannli. Trecand peste asta, poate am nimerit noi totusi o camera mai “cu probleme”, dar cu o priveliste “bomba”. Hanul e misto, iar spatiul de jos unde seara te poti strange in jurul unui semineu traditional cu lemn ne-a ramas in amintiri.

Prima zi in Interlaken a fost de explorare a orasului, berarii, cafenele si restaurante si interesctia dintre Blumenstrase si Postgasse ni s-a parut cea mai ofertanta: Husi Bierhaus si The Barrel Artisan Brew Cafe sunt locurile unde am mancat si baut bine in Interlaken (craft beers, cafea buna si grill house)

Prima zi chill, caci am stat doua nopti in Interlaken, a doua am vrut sa vizitam tot, asa ca ne-am trezit dis de dimineata si am facut o vizita la mall-ul din localitate de unde am achizitionat caciuli si alte elemente pe care noi le credeam inutile in septembrie :).

Cum zona din jurul Interlaken este plina de locuri misto de vizitat, ne-am orientat spre o excursie care sa nu ne manance toata ziua in ideea ca vom reveni acolo si vom vizita pe indelete Lauterbrunnen, asa ca am ales sa mergem pe una dintre cele mai inalte cai ferate din Elvetia catre Schynige Platte aflat la 1967 m altitudine. In mod ideal, in conditii normale pentru luna septembrie Schynige Platte ofera niste privelisti spectaculoase, atat pe partea celor doua lacuri si a Interlaken, dar si catre valea Lauterbrunnen, dar pe noi ne-a prins ninsoarea la mijlocul lunii septembrie :). Asa ca am profitat de ocazie si am luat pranzul la restaurantul hotelului din varf si am incercat pe cat posibil sa fentam vremea, sa ne plimbam pe platou si sa facem cateva fotografii (trei aici de teasing, restul pe pagina de facebook in seara asta - a se remarca painea de pe masa, nu am plecat degeaba :)) .

Dupa doua-trei ore petrecute pe platou am luat trenul inapoi catre Interlaken si cum intre timp a iesit si soarele, odata reajunsi in oras am luat-o initial la pas, ulterior cu transportul public local catre lacul Brienz, mai exact catre prima oprire a vaporului ce strabate lacul: Ringgenberg. Am nimerit intr-un satuc parca uitat de lume si totusi la 5 minute de civilizatie, iar hotelul Seeburg, aflat pe malul lacului intr-o zona “de-aia” e genul ala de loc unde pui o steluta in google map in ideea ca trebuie sa te intorci candva acolo. We’ll be back Seeburg!

La revedere Interlaken, maine plecam catre Zermatt, poate cel mai asteptat moment al calatoriei de catre noi! Frumos, domne aici, mai venim cu siguranta!

6 fabulous destinations for solo female traveller

Solo Female travelling is something that every woman should do at least once in a lifetime. It helps you rejuvenate yourself and explore the world just by being yourself. Safe is a huge concern for solo female travellers and an important factor when determining if a city is one of the great places to travel alone. Well, taking the first step in travelling solo sounds a bit intimidating but the world is not as scary as some might think if you have a positive attitude and general street smarts. We rounded up 6 of the best solo destinations around the world where you can feel safe and hit the open road.

written by Ilona Chin

1. Iceland

Even though Iceland's nickname of “The Land of Fire & Ice” sounds intimidating, solo travel is safe and easy here! Iceland is famous for its extremely low crime rates, earning it the coveted title of "safest country in the world" in 2018. For female solo travellers, the trip possibilities are limitless; whether you plan to take in those mind-boggling landscapes, soak in one of the country’s many thermal pools, ice climb or drive the Golden Circle, you’re bound to run out of time to see it all. Prefer not to go it completely alone? Join Globus 8 days Iceland Adventure which shared guaranteed for a solo traveller.

2. New Zealand

Between its incredible natural beauty, world-class beaches, vibrant cities, scenic vineyards, emerging food scene, and friendly locals, there’s is something for everyone.

3. Canada

America’s northern neighbour has a reputation for kindness. After losing yourself along the hilly, cobbled streets of Quebec City, chowing down on poutine and more elevated French cuisine in Montreal, or exploring the sights and sounds of Vancouver or Toronto are two of the safest cities to travel alone in Canada. The sheer beauty of the Canadian Rockies has seduced many a solo traveller, who've taken up everything from passing through Banff National Park backcountry to hiking past glacial lakes and waterfalls and bedding down in mountain huts. 

4. Switzerland

From the drop-dead gorgeous mountain views, azure lake, rolling meadows, alpines wildflowers, and the Rhône river backdrops, Switzerland is one of the most picturesque countries. The Swiss Travel pass works for every mode of public transportation (trains, buses, and boats), though we recommend taking the train for views of Switzerland’s famous alpine regions. It doesn't get much easier to experience the charming streets of Zurich and explore deeper into the Italian regions of Ticino, spot the contrasts in architecture, culture, culinary and of course language among Switzerland three main cultural regions.

5. Patagonia

If you’re hoping for some space to think and breathe on your solo adventure, it might be time to tackle Patagonia. Full of natural wonders, Patagonia is probably an ideal location for solo travellers looking for self-discovery," Between the wildlife, the scenic nature, and the chances to get your heart pumping, you won’t have time to worry about what’s going on back home.  Discover the unknown land of Southern Patagonia, which spans across Chile and Argentina, to what is nearly the end of the world with its towering peaks carved by age-old glaciers and incredible landscapes.

6. Amsterdam

Amsterdam is a fantastic place to hang out on your own, the canals are yours to explore as you discover the unique culture and nightlife of the city. The capital of the Netherlands is well-known for its past, the elaborate canal network and the architecture of their iconic, narrow houses. Amsterdam offers way more than just some thrills! As you wander the sidewalks by foot or bike and explore the Old Centre, Red Light, Dam Square and Museum districts, you might run into some warm and laid-back Dutch locals. 

If your resolution for 2019 is to travel more but you’re tired of waiting for your best friend or partner’s scheduled to match with yours, you should consider going on a solo trip by yourself. Sometimes you just need to stop waiting, pack your bags and set on your dream trip @ https://seduniatravel.com/

5 ways to enjoy virtual reality

- By Bob Tom -

Technology is probably one of the best creations human beings have ever made. Not only is technology able to connect people but also gives us exposure to sights, sounds, and feelings that we haven't experienced in our lifetimes. With Virtual Reality, technology now allows us to experience a close to life environment in an imaginary setting. 

As per Wikipedia, Virtual reality (VR) typically refers to computer technologies that use virtual reality headsets to generate the realistic images, sounds and other sensations that replicate a real environment or create an imaginary setting.

Though VR is still relatively new to the public, there are already a lot of different ways to enjoy VR. Here are some of the virtual settings and activities that you can experience:

1. Flying

Ever dreamed of flying? Well, here's your chance to experience how it feels like. Using VR glasses, you will be able to fly. VR glasses presents to people a very realistic image or video that helps wearers build the momentum and excitement for the whole experience. Aside from that, if you want to experience flying, you may try this new invention made by the researchers of Zurich University's Interaction Design Program called Birdly. Birdly is a Virtual Reality console that allows a person to lie on a padded, cross-shaped apparatus and gives people the sensation of flying over buildings or across country sides.

2. Swimming

In other cases, a VR headset will also let you experience swimming. But it's more than that. It will also let you feel what it's like to be swimming under oceans with dozens of fish, sharks, and whales swimming around you. You will definitely feel like being underwater because you will be able to see and hear the beauty and sounds of these sea creatures.

3. Roller Coaster

If you're just at home sitting on your couch and have got nothing to do, why not ride a roller coaster? Yes, it's just that easy when you have your own VR headset! Start feeling the gravity as the coaster twists and turns upside down. There are many VR headsets that have built in games where you can truly experience an extreme roller coaster ride. There is also a simulator called "No Limits 2" which will let you experience roller coasters on a whole new level.

4. Skydiving

Skydiving is an extreme sport that some people can only dream of doing because it is really expensive. If you're looking for a cheaper (and also much safer) way to experience skydiving, then VR is the way. Fly up to high altitudes with "Volo Airsport", a physics simulator that lets people hang on to their life and experience skydiving.

5. Flight Zombies

If you are the type of person who is fascinated by the idea of a zombie apocalypse, then VR is your closest way to experience it. So, if you want to experience what it's like to be in a scene of "The Walking Dead", download "Zombie Shooter". It is free on Apple and lets gamers to shoot and kill zombies that are chasing them through the VR headset.
