Creator's Key Takeaways

we have just arrived in switzerland which has the reputation for being one of the most expensive countries in the world so we want to test that theory right here in the largest city in switzerland zurich

the most expensive place to get a tall starbucks latte is right here in switzerland it's seven dollars and 17 cents which is about 10 australian dollars for a small coffee

i definitely recommend if you're coming to switzerland book yourself an airbnb get a kitchen

this is your little tip if you have a little one who doesn't mind having a nap in the pram this is when you go and explore the city
