About me
Born and deeply rooted in the picturesque city of Bern, equipped with an insatiable curiosity for culture and culinary delights. Always searching for urban stories and tales - once as a history student, later as a journalist an now as a political advisor.
Why Bern - Bern is known as the slowest city in the world, the music capital of Switzerland, it has the best urban swimming river I know, a giant anarchist culture temple in the middle of the city and – yes – it's a UNESCO World Heritage site. I find that quite impressive for a town of 140,000 people…

Kreissaal
Late Night Cocktails
Their house specialties "Black Cuban" (a rum coffee cocktail) and "Fado" (port wine and whiskey) are worth spoiling yourself for.

Trallala
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.

Brockenreich
Thinkin' 'bout Things
Brockenreich in Bern is one of my favorite thrift shops in the city. It's stuffed with everything from coins to clothes, clocks to couches & CDs to toys!

A walk on the wild side
"Reitschule" Bern is a controversial place with 1000 names that means a million different things to people. Prepare to taste the city's wild side here...

Lehrerzimmer
Back to school
"Lehrerzimmer" in Bern isa a giant, local open-air bar in an old high school turned into a cultural center. The whole building is also stuffed with art...

Effinger
Workers unite!
"Effinger" Bern is an innovative co-working space. It's very close to the city center somewhere where shops have been empty for years. Great for meetings.
