If you’re into thrifting, The New New Bern is your new bargain hunting ground! In this secondhand shop in the university quarter of Bern, you’re definitely going to find your new it-piece. They have an excellent eye for urban fashion. The store has a women and gents department with clothes, shoes and accessories. And unlike other vintage stores, everything is curated by the team of The New New Bern themselves. Their handpicked selection is hip, urban and always in style. There will definitely be no holes in the clothes.

And I could have bought even more – I flirted with a stylish pair of Nike kicks (in absolutely great condition) and a long gray knit cardigan. It will definitely not take me long until I'm back. If you don't beat me to it.

And last but not least, some good news for fashionistas who've spoiled themselves rotten. You get the chance to drop off your items against commission or store credit. Be warned that they are quite picky in buying, though. Check out their website to find out more about their requirements.

I work for the city government, and on my days off, I like to explore new places that friends have recommended to me and that I've seen on social media or while wandering around the city. I love living in Bern and calling this wonderful city my hometown. I've lived here since 2013. Time flies living in a city like Bern: Exciting pop-ups, lively cafés, creative restaurants, and unique exhibitions - Bern never ceases to surprise me. Never a dull moment.

Where The Wild Wines Are

I especially like that they have about a dozen bottles by the glass and that they offer you to try several wines before you settle for a good drop.
