It's important to note that while the historical bear pit still exists as a structure, the bears now live in a park on the slopes of the Aare and can freely transfer back and forth into the bigger pit if they want to It's not quite wilderness but muuuuuuch better than it used to be in the pit alone and of much higher quality than most zoos. Based on some of the reviews online you'd think it would be better to fill the pits in so the tourists stop believing that that's all they get, but then again you'd think after 20 years people would have figured it out...)
I love how you always smile and find things to do when your plans go awry, always so positive, sending you big love mate x
Super happy you like the vid and it came out positive! Hehe it's usually my fault when something goes wrong 😂 so maybe I've gotten used to it 😂 Big hugs right back at yeah!
Great video! Switzerland looks like a nice scenic country! Its was great to see you had a good time! I enjoyed watching this! R.I.P. to your grandpa 🙏
I’m super happy you enjoyed it 😊 and thank you 💙
@@NatashaBergen You're welcome
Another great adventure.
It looks a beautiful place, no wonder you were smiling all the time. That train was pretty cool and spotless.
Hope you get to my Wales in the future💚❤️👋
You also love trains?! Ahhh yes I'm hoping to get to Wales soon 🤩 Any tips, let me know! I've only been once to play some rugby but that was ages ago
@NatashaBergen
I'm not big train or car fan, that train looked amazing.
I would try to help you on your Welsh trip. I know so many places that you could see, I'd help you where I can too.
Let you use my camping gear and things. Brecon Beacons is amazing.
Waterfalls, mountains, bothies (Free old house) I know places here that many people would watch.
Last weekend I met up with a lovely lady and walked her to a crash site (1950s)
It was a family member of hers.
There's a few in area most were Canadian crew, all the plane is there.
I'm not a stalker😁
If I can help someone a little bit I will.
I would help you and share a few things and places.
You could use my bag everything and just give back when you are finished 😁👋
Glad to see you liked Wengen, my favourite place in all of Switzerland. I’ve stayed there many times and done many walks in all weathers. Shame you didn’t get better weather - I was amused that the two walks you did, the Lauterbrunnen-Wengen path and the walk to the Leiterhorn, are both ones I reserve for really wet days! And if the day is too miserable even for them I go somewhere like Bern!!
What really? Great minds think alike! 😊
The bears aren't in a 'pit' any more, they now have more space with access to the river, trees and caves where they can hide. But I agree incarcerating animals generally is problematic.
You are complaining about the "bear pit" in Bern. But it's important to know, that the "bear pit" is history for approx 20 years already. Instead, the local citizens have collected money to replace the pits with a "bear park", which is much much bigger than before. I wonder, if you have been there, or just read about it?
Sorry the weather didn't cooperate. Such a beautiful place to be no matter what though. Your uncle's ATM card advice is backwards. Always select local currency if prompted to get the exchange rate from your own bank. If you select your own currency you let the foreign bank determine the exchange rate which will always benefit the foreign bank. It's a common way for ATMs to make a little more money from the transaction.
Hey Jason! It was indeed lovely eh!
Thanks for letting me know about this currency thing. It's so funny because we debated for quite some time and eventually the group had decided. So I'll do my best to remove it so it doesn't confuse anyone :)
Your way of showcasing Switzerland’s stunning views in this video is fantastic Natasha, and your practical tips are helpful as always. It’s great that you always tell us the cost of things! This exact area is on my list of places to visit, so it was great to watch this 🙂I noticed you mentioned paying in your home currency was the best option, but I’ve heard that paying in local currency might sometimes offer better exchange rates and fewer fees. I usually pay in local currency for this reason. So are you 100% sure about this? As a Swede, I obviously face this dilemma more often when traveling in Europe than someone from a € country 🙂 Thanks for the great insights and beautiful footage! I’m always rushing to watch your uploads 😄
PS. As you probably already know, the eggs in Sweden are not refrigerated but are stored in an area next to the dairy/fridge. DS.
That's so cool you're planning to visit the area 😁 I hope you have an amazing time! Feel free to let me know how it goes :)
Yes you're right 😂 I'm seeing that majority knows best and local currency is better 😁 So I've fixed it now so no one gets misinfo 🙏
Three rules. Don't mention Wengen, don't mention Wengen, and don't mention Wengen 😂🤗 It's a fantastic village, no matter if it's in the summer or in the winter. Just don't tell people, it will get crowded 😍
Oopsie 🤣 at least it’s not in the title 😉
the altitude got to me a bit while we were in the Mürren area this past August. I suspect you were feeling some effects of climbing in altitude and experiencing a bit of oxygen deprivation.
Huh? Always select the local currency, since your own bank usually have much better exchange rate than their card machine vendor. I guess it all depends on your bank. Especially in ATM or euronet machines
Haha omg yeah it was a huge debate and I usually lose 😂 I'll do my best it fix it so it doesn't confuse anyone, thank youuu!
Is that a Canadian accent?
Hi Natasha! Do you edit videos yourself or you outsource it? I’m an editor and would love to discuss, if you’re interested
EU and Europe are not nearly the same. Europe is a continent and the EU is a Idea of Politics where switzerand is not in.
Natasha, sometimes it sounds like you slip into an Irish accent
So water fountains are basically historic Facebook groups where people meet to chat. 🙂
😂
Nice!
Almost wherever you are, you get a great view, although rainy and cloudy!
Good to know about getting a sim card for data as its not part of Europe with its roaming packages.
It’s true 😊 the world is a beautiful place and Europe in particular!
