Flying The Nest GERMANY IS CHEAP ?
Come to Romania.
Love ur vlogs. Where re yu both from?
Very ironic you guys are staying in this fancy ass hotel and booking first class in the train but worried about how expensive the food is going to be. You clearly have more than enough money if you can afford a hotel like that. You should have noticed how incredibly expensive Switzerland is as soon as you booked the hotel
they won 10000$ for traveling. I'm not sure if food was covered by that, maybe that's the reason.
yes but it's really weird to film being in a first class train and a expensive hotel and then asking is Switzerland really expensive
Roman74750 yea you right they stayed in f****** hotel schweizerhof
Why would you criticize someone for the hotel they stayed in? Weird. They weren't complaining about things being expensive, just stating a fact. Good move buying groceries in Germany ahead of time to save some bucks.
To be fair, they are travelling on Eurorail (the Interrail version for non-Europeans), first class with this pass isn't all that expensive.
"Swiss language is a bit difficult to read"...uhm, you do realize that 1) there is no such thing as "Swiss language" and 2) if you're in Zurich, things are just written in German?? Like the same German you saw in Germany? We just speak differently than in Germany?? Sorry but that just made me laugh...
same meaning like you
I wanted to write the same... There are only dialects spoken but there is no Swiss language on any signs or newspapers in Switzerland... Please first inform you about a country before traveling... -
Alissa Ditten i live in zurich.
Its all writen in german , because switzerland doesnt have orthogravi . Sry i dont know how to write this.
Alissa Ditten and it has swiss language .
Hello ,how are you?
Hoi,wie gahts dir ?
there is swiss german! and as a fact it's called allemannic. there's even a own wikipedia written in allemannic (even tho it's usually just a spoken language). know your facts!!
Buying groceries from Germany for Switzerland is actually a very swiss thing to do! :D
But not in aldi:(
yes my friends do it too
@@tristtv2880 where to then ?
@@grivious31 Lidl
but its bad for the economy
Please stop making videos immediately! There's sooooo much good food in the city and you eat at McDonalds! Whyyyyyyyyy?!
We didn't eat there haha. Just thought it would be a good place to compare prices as McDonald's is a cheap eatery and found in almost every country - so easy to compare.
+Catweazle Music Does Switzerland have the same awful immigration problem as California?
Robert Cornelius
Don't know what kind of immigration problems you have ;)
+Catweazle Music They didn't actually eat it, they just went in to compare it to the maccas in Australia
McDonald's is no eatery. It is a piece of modern anti-culture. If you don't want to spend lots of money there is a host of opportunities to get good food for very little dough. Just try the next butcher shop in Germany. Most of them have assorted little meals which are of infinitely better quality than the Mac junk.
WTF Hotel Schweizerhof is one of the expensivest hotels in Schwitzerland.
Ikr
+Bauimo Yeah - let's buy some cheap grocieries but stay in one of the most epensive hotel in switzerland.
Omg I know I went on tour of Europe last year and stayed three days there, and It was the most expensive hotel I stayed at and I stayed in 8 different hotels.
+Bauimo Most expensive* my god...
SwissTec
sory but i dont really speak english
Switzerland is quite expensive but the paychecks are in line with that, so it's bad for the tourists but it's really convenient for the swiss people when they go abroad.
With immigration and population, the paycheck reality is soon coming. The social impact is too great to sustain such a balance.
Joni Giuro is it about the same as US where they pay min $10/hour? That's min. Avg cost to rent is $1500 Monthly but the lowest in California would be $600 in bad areas. Curious to know
Thanks for the answer pisces person. We don't have a minimum wage by law, but I know a burger king employee (which I guess is one of the lowest) in the worst paying part of the country gets around $18/hour, that would be $2880/month. Rent is pretty much the same, average $1500/month but you can find something for $600 (it's more a question of how many people you live with because the "bad areas" in Switzerland aren't that bad, mostly just ugly). I hope this answers your question. EDIT: I forgot to mention that in Switzerland we usually get paid one extra month on december (it's like we have 13 months in a year), but that usually goes out for taxes which are about one month salary.
Don't forget the chf 600.- of taxes you have to pay and the chf 700.- of health insurance per person. Adding that a dental restoration can cost you chf 50'000.- or more, SWITZERLAND is far from being the paradise it pretends to be.
And they are a lot of racists that are always putting the blame on foreigners although Switzerland always exploits foreigners. Don't forget, foreigners are not welcome in Switzerland. Only their money is!
Swiss dollars, killed me hahaha
Don't complain.
Could be wors if they say Daaaalrs.
i cry
SwissTec i cried tbh
the swizz currency is swizz deer
Well if you can afford to reside in schweizerhof you shouldnt complain about the prices xD
People are moving from one country to another in the world and am here moving from one room to another at home :)
:P
+Rama Ramroum Is your travel insurance ok and proper vaccines taken? Room travelling can be risky sometimes.
+YPO6 hahaha, yaas I almost died as I went to the bathroom by a lego..:)
+Rama Ramroum hehehe thats good!
+VALIS VLOG 🤘🏻
5:35 ofc switzerland is expensive if you take first class tickets
WE HAVE LAKES, I HOPE U LIKE SUCCESS
Hey.
You were at one of the most expensive street and city of the world. The Mc Donalds and your hotel was at the RailWay-Street. Zurichs Railway-Street ist famous for being the most expensive street of the world. It's expensive! ;D
Greetings from Switzerland
Ayyy Bahnhofstrasse. Greetings from a Genfer!
Ich weiss dass die Bahnhofstrasse heisst, wollte das nur auf Englisch übersetzen haha.
+UniceVlog Ja ich verstehe 😂 Bist du ein Zürcher oder?
Wär me nid so alles findet do hehehe 😏
+maanuli ja do findet me no vil Swisstuber😉
The best thing is how you went looking how expensive Swiss is and you went to the Bahnhofstrasse *facepalm*
Those are hills not mountains
+Gina Boetschi Yep I was thinking... turn right and then you'll see mountains...
I think they thought it was uetliberg
hey that is alps
dont deport me because of this Alps , i mean the comment its yours, GENEVE
I mean swizz people sorry i dont know how to spell schwizee correctly
I don't understand why there is so much hate around this video. People think that when someone does a mistake or something unusual then they have the pass to mock and completely disrespect the other person. If you guys know so much then try to educate and give respectable advice, not ridiculing and disrespecting them.
Vincent Rodriguez True tho, still they could‘ve informed themselves .-.
Agreed!!!!!!!!!
Mixed feelings about this vid - LOL!! Aussies are so cute (I am married to one :D)
Starting off with you shopping in ALDI in Germany, and commenting on how cheap it is - then you travel in 1st class with SBB (Swiss Rail) and stay in the Schweizerhof hotel (most expensive) in Zurich (the "z" is more of a "ts" sound btw - Just like in High German in Germany) where you point to a tiny hill and call it a "mountain" :D :D :D ... and "Swiss dollars"!?!? ROFL!! (Good thing your mate corrected you on that ...) - and finally you end up in McDonalds (*facepalm*) where you conclude that Switzerland is indeed more expensive than Germany - Well done! ;)
Here is the thing - Yes, Switzerland prices for just about everything is more costly than in the Euro countries (and just about anywhere else in the world). Reasons for this vary from product to product, but with food it comes down to a couple things. Firstly it has a lot to do with quality. We Swiss are typically very fond of our locally grown produce, which is grown by our beloved farmers who by and large use the very least possible amount of chemicals to grow their crops and the least possible amount of antibiotics etc.. in rearing their cattle and poultry. Swiss produce quality standards are some of the highest in the world, and most Swiss seem happy to pay for it. GMO's are non-existent on farms as well. Secondly there is the general quality of life in Switzerland which has everything to do with salaries. Swiss prices for people coming from Germany who get a German salary is pretty horrible, but for someone with a Swiss salary it's quite manageable.
So in the case of McDonalds - the reason the food costs what it does is mostly due to the higher quality of ingredients, all or most of which come from local producers, and the healthy salary rates - yes, even for those working at McDonalds.
Glad you guys liked your visit to Switzerland, but really you haven't even seen a percent of what Switzerland has to offer - so hope you come back again and really get around a bit. ;)
And also the fact that there is a huge oligopoly in grocery and supermarkets, you know, migros coop manor denner etc
one thing about your straobery is not organic or easly contaminated by chemicals one day i went to farmers market and guss what i almost dead on the streat and angels wispered their spell and got the fresh breath
Emanuel Adair Boder: for the record The Schweizerhof Hotel is NOT the Most Expensive Hotel in Zürich!! Check your sources!
They may have been provided that room and first class tickets thru sponsorships.
Did you really had 1 class tickets for the train in Switzerland? xD
PERRROK that made me really anxious while watching the video
Seriously, this is hilarious how they start the video going grocery shopping in Germany to save some money, but end up traveling by 1st class and staying at a very expensive hotel in one of the most expensive part of the city. And Swiss dollars? Come on!!! hahaha
dang you were in the most expensive city in switzerland and the most expensive hotel as well :S
+kein Name und sie händ im aldi ässe ikauft😂😂🙈
+TristTV isch fürk so
clearly not the most expensive hotel in Zurich
+SirZuri Yeah, I could swear Dolder is much more expensive :'D
IllenbergAir yeah and the Baur au Lac is even more expenisve 😂
1. class ticket on a train? Who in their right mind does that?
Also, Bern is not the capital city, but the federal city. There is no capital city.
It IS the capital city
No, its the federal city. Switzerland has no capital city.
you can check note 1 and reference 3 here: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bern
Bern is the federal and capital city of Switzerland. I live there, so i think you can trust me
No. you're wrong. It is only de facto capital, but not de jure, so not official capital, but handled as if it were.
they won 10000$ for this trip. I guess they have to spend it somewhere.
My God! Of course Switzerland is expensive if you're staying in one of the most expensive hotels in Switzerland. Plus Zürich is the most expensive city in Switzerland and if you make shopping at Bahnhofstrasse it's normal that it isn't cheap it's one of the most expensive shoppingspots in the world!
You're totally right! Zurich is very expensive, but you also can find places where it isn't that expensive...
+Carter - Yeah that's for sure but the spots they showed are part of the most expensive...
OMG if you people know that it's expensive den stay at your home I think that is the best don't disturb people here huh
wow you are perfect for the swiss economy.
Well the ratings indicate Switzerland is the most expensive country in the world... so I guess the answer is already known? Thanks anyway for comparing Zurich (most expensive city of the country) with Germany (high standard but low prices even for Europe) to prove your point :P and yea that piece of bread costing 29 cents was really a good opening for the video... I didn't know we had Swiss dollars though, that's news to me! so I guess I learned something, yippie.
to say that switzerland is an ecpensive country but to travel in first class😱 i don't understand😂😂
HOW MUCH IT COST FIRST CLASS TRAIN ITS NOT A BIG DEAL ,
You said Switzerlnd is expensive but you travel in 1.class in the train.👏Applause👏
MY FATHER CONSULT - EVERY JA-DIE-JA IN GERMANY
You need to see the mountains and not just the expensive and monotenous cities.
stuff are probably more we expensive because workers and residents get paid more for example teachers get paid up to 100,000 yearly
+Jose Lozano True!
+Jose Lozano I think its more.
that only happens to very well educated teachers at university. and there are statistics which show that even when the higher salary etc. is included it is still around 20% more expensive than in germany
+silvervixen007 Yes switz is an unjust country, conceited, but awful just a total shithole.
+Gefa Duro what do you have against Switzerland ? I think it's very far from a shithole probably one of the cleanest and safest places I've ever lived ... People can be a bit judgmental but the country itself is very nice.
you have to go to Starbucks to really see how expensive Switzerland is ;)
Try eating at the store restaurants which offer fresh food and often sold by weight. The Main Station(s) have snack and shopping facilities. Bear in mind that Swiss citizens have great purchasing power due to their high wages. For example, starting salaries for graduates are often about USD 90,000.
The food is form ALDI, but the hotel is one of the most expensive in Zürich =D That's the way you save money ! But I hope you had nice holidays!
I paid CHF2.60 for a kilo of onions three days ago - around six times more than what I would normally pay. I should have brought onions with me!
Enjoyed the whole video but.... Titling it "Is Switzerland as expensive as they say?" and you settle a final conclusion via McDonalds' in the last few minutes? :P
McDonald's can answer all of life's questions :P
+Flying The Nest hahaha XD Actually I live in switzerland and Yes it's very expensiv here but I grew up like that so everything outside of switzerland is cheep to me
A disappointment.
You stating that Switzerland is expensive through checking out the mcD prices is nonsense. Yeah the prices may be higher, but the quality is 10x better than in most other countries
Jess, you have so much energy 4 yrs ago😂 so as Stephen😅 It's amazing to see how you two have matured. You have gotten more organized, relaxed and knowledgeable about vlogging. And that's why more and more people are loving your channel😍 Enjoy your new family and God bless!
zurich is not the capital city it's Bern
Bibedibibedi Bob she said "Bern is the capital"
Is the ultra fancy 5 bedroom suite in the wealthiest country in Europe expensive ??
Yes...yes it is.
Switzerland is expensive, but so are most of the salaries here. Taxes in Switzerland are much better than anywhere else in Europe (with the exception of maybe Monaco and Luxembourg). Same goes for VAT in this country - it's Europe's lowest. For anyone outside the country with an income below 50k €, Swiss prices are astronomical. The average Swiss income is 58'000 Swiss Francs (52'000 €). Zürich is the most expensive city in the country, but even there, You can save a ton money if a local is the guide. People working in and around this city earn on average more than in other places.

It's hilarious how you guys pronounce german words :D
+Frodowarrior but they are sooo hard to pronounce!!
+Flying The Nest its also not the "swiss language", its just german; at least in the section you guys are staying.
FYI WE CALL THEM GER.. MAN---- IN OUR LANGUAGE GENEROUS MAN
It's not bad. Switzerland is great! I love Switzerland. just didn't have a good time in the end since I got hurt.
I love you guys! So happy to have discovered you :)
Awwww thank you ❤️❤️
No problem! :)
Angelica Leder I love you 💕
You are travelling first class and sleeping in Switzerland in a 4 stars hotel and then you think that food here in Switzerland is too expensive for you?
haha guys why you travel in 1. class and stay at schweizerhof? zurich an geneva are the expensiv citys in swiss better come to bern it's more calm and the people are not snooty like in zurich! and zurich is not the capital!!! it's bern
MAY BE THEY HEARD BURN IS UNDERGRASS TEAM AND TH E CORE OF IMMIGRATION PROCESS AND AND THEY R HERE AS A TOURIST WHERE AS ZURICH IS COFFEE AND BUSY AND BUSINESS REGARDLESS , BOB MARLEY ,BABY DONT CRY
They buy food in Germany because it's said to be expensive in Switzerland but they travel 1st class and stay in 5star hotels ...
By the way: Things are 30% to 50% more expensive in Switzerland than in Germany.
For movie fans: In the novel "Jason Bourne" stayed in the same hotel "Schweizerhof" as them when he went to Zürich to check his Swiss bank account.
Food not.
For example.
1 Döner kosts arround 2€-3€ in Berlin.
Compare that to Zürich.
Hardwarehelfer Yes, I compared it and it's exactly as I say. What do you mean?
In Zurich 1 Döner is at least 10.- CHF
too funny how you spend a fortune on hotels and first class tickets, but buy your food at the cheapest supermarket in Germany....
Yes switzerland has relatively high prices in the supermarket, but why are you staying in one of the most expensive hotels in Zurich? Hotel Schweizerhof is a beautiful choice, yet you could have spend at least 50% less and invested the money in a good Zuricher Geschnetzeltes in a restaurant.
Danke
Switzerland The Heaven On Earth
"up on the mountains"
..I am done.
Ochhhh. She didn't say mountains. She said "mantns". Maybe thats mind hills where they come from.
Australia is a very flat country
I lived in Finland and currently I am in New Zealand. I did not find lot of difference in the food prices in Switzerland.
Swiss is so expensive, I went there last summer , everything is nice except prices
I worked in a Swiss grocery store 30 years ago (1988). At that time $1 US would get you 3CHF. So the dollar was really strong. Now the exchange rate is 1:1, ug! Anyway in the break room they had a Coke machine, it cost 1.50CHF for a 1/3l Coke. Now in the US, at the time, you could get 12oz (a bit more than 1/3l) for 25cents. Convert that around and it is 50cents, twice as expensive for a little less product. But here's the thing, the US dime (10cents) is the exact same size and weight as the 1/2CHF. So drop three dimes into the machine and you get a Coke for 30cents instead of 50. Of course I didn't dare do that at work, because they'd figure out pretty quick who was cheating the machine. But it came in handy for pay toilets while out and about. Oh and McDonald's in Zurich is really expensive, you pay for the brand. Go to McCheaper's instead, better food, half the price. Or there used to be a chain called Cindy's. Very tasty burgers, they put coleslaw on it instead of lettuce. I ate Cindy's and Moven Pic 5 days a week for 3 months straight, and lost weight! Probably had more to do with working in the grocery store wrangling trollies and lifting heavy boxes than the burgers though.
Ps you sited in the first class and your train ticked was made for 2nd class haha
It cheaper there than it is in america now. Rent one room bedroom is around 600 dollars. Way more expensive in the states. We pay three times more taxes here in the states.
lol how much money do you spend on your trip :S .... these hotels..... rich parents? ;)
@@anneofgreengables1619 they started collaborate with different travel companies later when they improved their vlogging skills. I watched their video where they talked about it.
I have friends who work for Lockheed Martin and only make the equivalent of 1200 a month American, and travel to Switzerland, Germany from Italy, and seem to do fine as they have told me to travel is very cheap. Just what I have been told. They are American expats. I also have friends who are missionaries in Ireland so they have to raise their salaries, and do the same thing. Monies just seem to go further is what they told me. Very affordable.
Yes Schaffhausen is in Switzerland...I live in Zurich! (:

Actually, switzerland doesn't have a capitol. Bern just acts as the capitol
Heather Brunell omg are you serious? bern IS the capitol wth do you even live in switzerland? 🙄
no I'm not from Switzerland. Bern is Switzerland's de facto capital, but that's because there happens to be a lot of federal buildings there. Because it ACTS like the capital, it's considered the capital. However, it's not a capital like there is in other countries, where the capital is set in the constitution. Switzerland law does not mention a capital, and there are federal buildings in other cities. So you can call it a capital because it functions as one, but legally it's not.
He is right bern is actually not the capital
Um... something is not right here. You all are riding first class, which is expensive, staying in one of the most expensive hotels, which is nowhere under 450 CHF, also staying in the most expensive city in the world and traveling around Europe, WHICH IS EXPENSIVE. But the price of a Big Mac is considered expensive? Strange...
OMG how do you afford to stay in effing
Schwizerhof?! It's like this place were only celebrities and rich ass ppl stay. I have lived in Switzerland for 3 years and I'd rather stay in Movenpick or Novotel if I was staying for only 3 days LOL
Its nice seeing other australians like me in my country (half swiss) ive been there multiple times and it is NOT as expensive as they say
eg: zurich to bern 124km $30 aud by train 🙂
Also its shaf-house-en
Hey you didn't stop at the Leopard Room in downtown Geneva? Great bar! 7th most expensive lounge bar in the world.
jpm0921 take me there! :-)
I'm sorry but I come from Switzerland and for us that price for food is pretty normal. Zurich is just a expensive city in Switzerland. There are other citys and cantons that are less expensive. We work for money, so we can afford it and I think it isn't a good thing to buy food in Germany to come to Switzerland. Euros are different to franks that's why it's more or less expensive. In Switzerland we have four languages: swissgerman, french, italian and romansh.
Sorry if I have offendet you but it's what I think is right.
Ig bi Schweizerin 🇨🇭👍

omg Swiss dollars😂😂😂I‘m dead

on an average day panhandling in switzerland, can get like 200-300 (swiss dollars:-)
and if u have a good story like: im a low budget tourist, had to go emergency to the dentist...please help me with a few (swiss dollars) to pay the bill...can get even more.
and yes, writing from experience.
Zurich is the expensivest city in the world.
Nope, it isn't
its one of the most expensive citys in the world ;)
+Bauimo guys... London is rated more expensive than Zurich

"the swiss language looks a bit tricky to read"
the official written language in Zürich is german, they only speak swiss german
We do not only speak Swiss German. But German, French,
Italian, English and and.....
Anyone who can afford a suite at the Schweizerhof (mitten im Zuerich) isn't likely to be too concerned about prices for anything else. And watching a show as obdurately mindless as 'The Bachelor' - well that's a whole 'nother story. Still think the kids are cute and amiable, flightiness and impertinence aside......so what! They're rich Aussie's on the prowl. Who wouldn't enjoy a night or two in Zurich?
They won 10000$ for a trip. They have to spend it somewhere.
Okay, I feel I need to explain something, cause people in the comments are so negative. I don't event know why, because the girl isn't talking bad about our country. But the problem of videos like this, in which somebody i gives reviews about another county than his own is, that you review not only our country, but also our mentality, culture, our way of living and identity. It's the same everywhere you go: people like talking bad about other countries, but they don't like to hear something negative about their own one, because it's our identity we're talking about...
People in the world need to know that we, Swiss people, everyday we're travelling in other countries, we hear from foreigners that we are rich, money is raining from heaven, that everything is so expensive etc. But what people don't know is, that the biggest part of us is the middle class, which is not rich at all and for the money we have, we work hard every day and we pay a big price: our freedom. Also, yes, the prices are very high, but for that, we get good salaries and the quality of the product is not only good, but perfect.
So, to all the people bitching around here: there you go. In every country it's different and people need to learn to adapt and to accept the differences in culture and mentality. It's not about being better than another country, there is no better or worse. It's just different, every contry is different and amazing in its own way.
Zürich mountains ? XD hahaha
There are mountains in zurich XD hihihi
+TristTV hahahaha mdr des montagnes a zurich qu'elle gitane celle la
perhaps 1% of video content has to do with what said in the video title, thumbs down
Too bad they're not smart enough to travel to Switzerland when it's at its finest....DUH. There are no leaves on the trees. Hello? Timing is everything in life. It would be like going to the Atlantic Coast in Maine in October....you can, but why in the world would you?DUH.
Let me save you 15 minutes. The answer is yes. Switzerland ranks as the most expensive country in the world.
Bern is not the Capital. Swiss doe sent have a Capital City

Ok what's the deal with everything being supposedly so expensive in Switzerland... I know I'm biased and all being from Switzerland, but it's really not that hard to get by on relatively low funds here. You could for example start by not staying in a fancy hotel on Bahnhofstrasse. Getting food from the grocery store and cooking for yourself will save you a ton of money if you have a kitchen of your own. Also, McDonalds is relatively expensive in Switzerland when compared to other restaurants. If you don't have a kitchen or really feel like eating out, there are still a ton of restaurants that operate at very affordable prices, you just have to be prepared to go a bit outside the very center of the city where all the expensive tourist traps are (which isn't that much effort since zurich, despite it being a very cosmopolitan city imo isn't actually very large, so you can get to cheaper areas through a 10-15 min tram ride).
She is speaking very fast!
NEW YEAR STARTS IN AUSTRALIA
when you have a job in Switzerland it is not expensive because all jobs are well-paid. When you go there from Germany what is a low-wage country, everything appears expensive.
Saving all the bucks by not flying allows you to stay in great hotels, how many do not get this basic travelling 101.
Lk T Travelling 1. Class on such a distance is almost equal to a price of such aflight
If you’ve got children, working in Switzerland comes with a hefty financial burden given the cost of childcare. A full-time nursery place in Geneva and Zurich costs between 13 to 20 percent of a family's income, compared with just 4-6 percent in neighbouring countries👎👎👎
If only the backpacker horde about to descend on our little town - most from Europe and the UK - threw this much cash around. Even the flashpackers would gape at that hotel room.
Haha how you pronounced Schaffhausen XD
just a little side note, Bern is not the capital of Switzerland, Switzerland doesn't have a capital.
Looking at a hill, calling it a mountain. rofl
It's so funny to watch videos like this one when you're swiss ahaha
fucking Aussies mate :D
The title is misleading. I did not see much shopping in Switzerland to show that country is expensive.
Is swear so adorable how you pronounce everything🙊😂
It seems to annoy others ... But you can't help it when you have no clue how it's pronounced and want to just have a go at saying it 😝

Yes it is. Bread cheese and a soup is about the same as Italy. Restaurants are expensive .
Gasoline is a bit cheaper. Switzerland is 30% more expensive than Italy or even more than that. Big cities are expensive
"Jonathan had always found the Swiss a money-loving, dour, religious, money-loving, independent, well-organized, money loving people." (quote from Trevanian's "The Eiger Sanction")
drinks were also expensive in Switzerland depending where you buy them from.
