sneak peek: one day in bern
Hands down, the best surprise of our Swiss adventures was our (unexpected!) one day in Bern. HANDS DOWN.
After our first night out in Geneva, we decided to use our Swiss Passes for a last-minute Sunday day trip. We toyed with a few options (Chamonix! Lucerne! Interlaken!), but after running our ideas across a few people we met along the way, we eventually settled on Bern. We’ll get to all the reasons why our Swiss Passes are so near and dear to our hearts, but being able to make day trip decisions on a whim played a pretty big role in this declaration of love.
We certainly weren’t expecting Bern to be so picturesque and beautiful. As with nearly this entire trip, being there on a quiet, snowy day made it all the more perfect. We spent the day aimlessly wandering around, looking for bears (no, seriously), and making friends with an Italian/Turkish/Scottish waiter (more on him later, too).
Honestly. How is this place real?!
Nestled in the crook of the Aare River and complete with perfect little snow-capped houses, Switzerland’s capital city felt more like a dreamy Christmas village.
Next up after our one day in Bern? Two nights in Dub city!
xo!
