I already been in Switzerland but Zurich was the first Zurich was the first time.
Last year I went to Geneva and the cold was much stronger than now, and I was pretty lucky with the weather and was ok, around 22º during the day and only rained for a couple a hours on friday. So I was lucky!
My trip to Zurich had a main and important reason! One of my dearest friend got married and invited me to go and to be her witness 😊😍😍😍
So obviously I took this opportunity to visit the city and arrived a few days before for some sightseeing!
I visited the city in 2 days and I think is pretty enough!
Zurich is kind of a small city, quite, clean and people are super nice and helpful, specially when they see someone needing information or directions, like myself...
I met a girl who help me getting my way to the apartment with her GPS, because my smartphone decided not to work properly after the airplane mode. So we met and chat a bit, I found out she had been in France on the other week for a wedding which is funny because I was in Zurich for a wedding and she though I was french!! So perfect!
By the way, I thank this girl so much for her help :)
Honestly I thought Zurich is quite similar to Geneva, maybe because is mostly around a big lake, but the architecture is also similar.
