Travelling solo in Switzerland!!
I visited Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen, and Grindelwald in Switzerland in March this year!
Switzerland was my first time traveling abroad and traveling alone, so I was very nervous. I think the biggest obstacles when traveling abroad are probably the language, transportation, and security. So I'd like to talk about those three in my own words!
First, about the language. In Switzerland, Swiss German and German are mainly used, but I can't speak German, let alone English lol, so I basically used a translator, but it was a breeze! Everyone was generally polite, and when they wanted to communicate something, they spoke slowly and in simple English, which was very helpful!
Next, about transportation. In Switzerland, if you buy the "Swiss Travel Pass" in advance, you can ride basic trains and buses as much as you want during your trip! As an exception, mountain trains and ropeways are half price, so it costs a little. However, it's really easy because you don't have to buy tickets every time!
Lastly, about security.
I don't remember being scared of security in the Bernese Oberland area that I visited! On the contrary, I remember him being very kind, helping me when I didn't know how to get a ticket for the ropeway! There were no homeless people and the city was clean with no graffiti or trash! If you're even slightly interested in going to Switzerland, please go! When you see that magnificent view, all your small worries will be forgotten and you will feel purified. #solotravel #switzerland #wintertravel
