    // ABOUT THIS VIDEO //
    Riverside terraces, mountain views, artisan pastries, breakfast made from scratch, and seriously good coffee…Unfortunately that is NOT what you’ll find at most cafes in the Jungfrau Region, where the "barista" is more likely to press a simple button on a machine to "make" your coffee.
    But you’re in luck because we’ve spent the last 3 years cafe-hopping in order to find 7 that you do not want to miss.
    Come along with us to Mürren, Grindelwald, and Interlaken where we’ll introduce you to the people behind the very best cafes in the Jungfrau Region - and get their tips on exactly which food and drinks you should try when you visit. Let’s go!

    Great video. Nice to see you expanding the focus beyond typical tourist locations/activities and focusing on a specific “ancillary” topic. I think there’s a lot of material waiting for you in this direction. For instance, if you want to expand your geography a bit, head over to St Saphorin/Rivaz and do a piece on Vinorama and a few small wineries. I also think people have a lot of curiosity around what it’s like to shop in Switzerland in stores like Coop, Migros, Manor, etc. Maybe you could distill that down to… where to shop in the Berner Oberland if you’re a tourist in need of “stuff” - clothing items, picnic food, wine/beer, pharmacy, electronic items, etc. Maybe some insights there too, like, being certain to weigh and label your produce before checking out. And, No. You can’t walk into a pharmacy and buy a bottle of 250 ibuprofen like in the States :-) Just ideas. Keep the vids coming. Are you guys digital nomads in your regular life?
