We are going to the most expensive country in Europe. So it's a good idea to load the gasoline in Austria. At the border, before passing. Here the 95 liter is 1.62 EUR. - That's how we start. - Well, my people, here we are crossing the bridge. - Dividing Austria from Switzerland. - There is a river here. - And we have two very important missions before entering Switzerland with Lisanna. - The first is to buy the cartoon. - The vignette is that paper that you have to stick on the glass. - To be able to circulate on the routes. - Yes. - And the second thing is to buy the chip for the phone. - Because Switzerland is not part of the European Union. - And with our phone we pay 7 EUR for 100 megabytes. - Very expensive. So when you enter the country, the money leaves. - No one? - No. - There, that poster you see, says that we have already crossed into Switzerland. - We are going to fulfill a giant wish with Lisanna. - What is knowing the most expensive country in the world. - Or at least one of them. - But first I want to tell you a secret. - I'm going to crouch here, next to the car. - I'm going to be like this. - So that whoever sees me laughs. - There is. So that no one listens. - And I'm going to tell you something. - Do you want to get cheaper tickets, - suddenly, cheaper accommodation, - get to travel with promotions that are not available in your countries - but are in others? - We recommend Surfshark VPN. - With Surfshark VPN you will be able to connect - in other countries and access prices - that, suddenly, in your country they do not have it. - But don't tell anyone about this. - It's a secret between us. - What do you have to do? - Click on the link in the video description. - The VPN is downloaded for 3 months for free. - If they don't like it, Surfshark pays them back. - And I also leave you the manual on how to get cheaper air tickets. - But this is between us, huh. - Ouch. - Now we are going to cross. - Hi, friend. - Do you know where I can buy the cartoon? - Stop the car. - Wait a minute, my wife has good English. - Thank you so much. - Hello, excuse me. - Do you know where I can buy the bullet to put in the car? - Yes, here in the coop. - Oh, in the supermarket? - Not the supermarket, but the gas station. - Ah, do we have to go to that address? - Sure. - Just follow my husband. - Yes. - 2 minutes. - Thank you so much. - They are very nice. - He is going to take us and the gentleman is going to accompany us. Well. - How polite are the people here. - Thank you very much, you are very kind! - Thank you. - Bye. - Hello. - Hello. - Do you have the vignette for the car? - Yes, for Switzerland? - Yes, I want to be in Switzerland for a week, more or less. - With my car. - The minimum is 1 year. - Is the minimum 1 year? - How much does it cost? - CHF40. - Well, I have no choice. - My love. - AHA! - Well, here it is, my love. - There is. - Ok let's go. Where we go? Zurich? - Zurich. Zurich. - Let's start with the largest city in the country. Come on. - How about? 'Let's go'. Since they speak 3 languages here... - Four. German, Italian, French and Romansh. But the most spoken is German. But hey, I can speak Italian too. I don't know if you understand me. - Depending on where you are. Well, let's go. How much time will this be? - Be careful here, don't crash the BMW. - Because insurance is going to cost us dearly. - Well, people, we were able to go outside now. - Let's go. - We have the parking ticket, which is here. - We don't even know where to pay it - or how much it costs per hour. It will be the surprise of the day after. What first attracts attention it's how people dress. So during the video pay attention how fancy they dress. - Eh... look at the piece of fish over there... - Ah, look how cute, Lisanna. They are the babies. - Oh. - Look what the water is. - You can grab a glass and have a drink of how clean it is. - Excuse me, can you swim in this river? - You can try but they will bite you. - I don't recommend it. - Oh, they're going to bite me. - Yes. - They're a little... - They're hungry. - But I read on the internet that there is a beach in Zurich for swimming. - Yes there are. - Oh. - But do you want to swim in the river or in the lake? - In the river. - Then yes. - It's a bit far from here, isn't it? - It's near the station, on the other side. - Is very pretty. - You can swim there and it's deep. - Oh great. - And there are no ducks. - And there are no ducks that attack me. - OK, thanks a lot. - Have a nice day. - You too. - Bye bye. - The truth is that people here dress up but are very elegant. - Very good. - Zurich is, firstly, - one of the most expensive cities in the world. - It seems to me that he is in the second world ranking. - Second. - This city is the financial capital of all Switzerland. - Here are the most important banks. - The companies. - The multinationals, everything is here. Yes. - In other words, all the people who are well-groomed - probably work in a bank or in a multinational. - And third, it is the most important city in Switzerland. - Financially speaking. This is where all the money moves. - And the biggest. - Because it has 400 thousand inhabitants. - So, the things that we see here, the prices, - we won't be able to consider them as the prices of all of Switzerland either. - Because this is the most expensive place. But a bikini for 10 CHF for a local here is very cheap. - Cheap. But only the panties. But even for me that's cheap. Usually it is 15 EUR. - What I would like now is to find a store - where I can buy a phone chip. - A kiosk, something, I don't know if there is a kiosk. - Hello. - Hello. - Excuse me, do you sell sim card? - No, you go straight and to the right, Swisscom. - Swisscom. - Yes. - Thank you. Bye. - Thank you. - Greetings. Where is? - I don't know. - 'Swisscom' it said. - And did you see that the Swiss flag is square? Yes. - And all the flags are rectangular. - I think it is the only country in the world with a square flag. - A street full of flags. - They must be the flags of all the cantons of Switzerland. What, is there a source? Look. - Oh it's true. - Do you know that this city has about 2,000 fountains? - And you can drink drinking water from any of them for free. Wow. - That's why they say "don't buy bottles of water in Switzerland". Yes. - "Drinking water is cleaner than the water that comes in the bottle." And in Leichtenstein I tested the water and it has no taste. Did you see how it always tastes like something, chlorine? Something has. - They say that the purest water in the world is odorless, colorless. Clear. - And tasteless. And so it was. I didn't feel anything, just freshness. Wow, the poet. I loved the flags. And we just passed by a coffee and I saw a croissant. And it was 2 EUR, which is not expensive in Europe. And then I started to think "they lied to us". - I was very curious before coming to this country. - As an ignorant person on the subject, - I grabbed and Googled "are all Swiss rich?" - Let's see what came out. - And two pages appeared. - A Swiss information portal in all languages. - And the official website of the country's statistical government. - And it says the following: - in the country there are, more or less, 2,600 adults - who have assets of 50 million dollars in the bank. - There are half a million Swiss who have a million dollars. - That they are part of the millionaires club. - That made Switzerland the country with the largest number of millionaires in the world. - Or one of them. - But the information that caught my attention the most - and I think it is the one that may surprise you too - is that 60% of the Swiss - earn an average salary. - The average salary, according to the country's statistical page, - is 6,700 CHF per month. - Just imagine... But how much will the cost of living be then? - It says that right there. - After paying the taxes, the health insurance, - the clothes, the exit, the rent and everything, - they have left over what they see here. - More or less, 13% of your salary. - I mean, they earn well. - But the cost of living for the Swiss too - is the highest in the world. - To say "all the Swiss are rich" is not correct. - Most of the Swiss in Switzerland have an average life. - But, compared to the rest of the world, - it can be said that the Swiss have a higher quality of life - than most countries. And also that they can save 13%. It's a lot. There are countries where you can't even save. - Wait, I did more. - I went to a recruitment page to see - how much would they pay me as a salesperson. And how much was it? - My salary as a salesperson in Switzerland would be between 4,000 and 4,500 EUR per month. - It's almost double what I earned in Estonia. - That he earned almost 2,500 EUR with commissions. But can you live with that? - If you tell me the first time, I'm tempted. - I say "I come to live here". - But then I went to see what is the cost of living for an individual here - and it is, more or less, 3,900-4,000 EUR per month. - I wouldn't be making much of a difference - between what I had left over in Estonia and what I would have left over here. Clear. - With the same profession. - Concluding all this, in Switzerland there is also poverty. - According to the official government website, - 8-10% in Switzerland are on the poverty line. - And what is the "poverty line" for Switzerland? - It is to earn less than 4,000 CHF per month. - It is not that one is going to come here and become rich. - And everyone is rich. No. - People here have to work to pay the bills too. - But enjoy an impressive quality of life. - Of that there is no doubt. Look what that water is. Matthew, come. - No... Do you see how transparent it is? - Yes. - And besides, there are earthquakes. I mean, there's someone sleeping there. - Look at you... - How beautiful... For God's sake... Well, that's when you realize it. You spend a lot but you have all this, right? To see. - Of course, the country returns what you pay in taxes. Clear. And also in Switzerland many people of legal age come, let's say, to spend the last stage of their lives here. There are many famous people who have done it. It is like a calm country, in peace, silence. Even, there are many rules. For example, after 10 PM you cannot flush the bathroom. How... And I wonder "what if something happens to me and...?" - And you get lazy. That. What I am going to do? Leave it there smelling? I don't know... That's something I wouldn't know. Second, on weekends you can't cut the grass. Because it makes a lot of noise. Surely there are people who have those robots already. Which makes it silent. And do you see that the little animals all have friends? Well, that has nothing to do with it. But with pets, if you have a guinea pig, for example, or a parrot, you have to buy two. So that they have company. And it is even written in the law. And for dogs you have to pay taxes to have them. I have never seen a city where the river is transparent. Its the first time. - Look, Lisanna. - A "margherita" pizza, 18.50 CHF. - Since EUR and CHF are 1:1, - it's the same. - Vegetable pizza, 22.50 CHF. - And a chicken, 23.50 CHF. Yes, eating out is more expensive. It's more expensive, but also... - I thought it was a lot more. Clear. - Lisanna, maybe we can find a chip here. I hope so. - Are you listening to the seller? They speak in Italian. - Hello, do you sell sim card for internet? - Yes Yes? - How much does it cost? We are tourists. - CHF50. - Oh, 50 euro. - Wow, how many gigs? - Unlimited, for one month. - Thank you very much, have a nice day. - 50 EUR with unlimited internet. - Aha... - What do we do? I think we're going to see the city and a gas station. Otherwise we waste time and pay for expensive parking. - Well. We are going round and round knowing nothing. So where do you want to go? - I would like to visit the FIFA museum. So, let's go there. - Ok let's go. - I can't believe it. - It is the most famous popular clothing store in Brazil. - "C&A" is called. - Oh really? - I swear. It is the store that we said before that the bikini cost 9 EUR. - Yes, and in Brazil it is a store with low, cheap, popular prices. So it's not like everyone buys expensive stuff. There are also cheaper options. - Clear. - All men in suits here, Lisanna. It looks like a business thing here. - Or it's a fashion show. - We think it's the most expensive street in the world. - With the most expensive stores in the world. Sure, Burberry. I already forgot all the names. - Notice that here in Switzerland there are many famous brands. Yes. - Let's see, some that I remember. - Toblerone, the chocolate. Lindt, another chocolate. Yes. - Well, the brand of Swiss Army knife. Yes. - It's another one that comes to mind. There is also one that packs bags. The Swiss flag is always there. - Credit Suisse bank. - Who does not know that bank? - My love, the watches. - There it is, look. The store is right here. Look, it's there. - Let's see how much the Rolexes are. The cheapest is 9,800 CHF. - He wouldn't even know how to look at the time, he's so sophisticated. - That necklace that looks like a snake. Yes. - That costs 3 thousand trillion USD. A. - It was exaggerated... - What a luxury this place is. - They say that money here is precious. - Let's see if we can get something out. - So people can see it too. - Ah, he gave me only one bill... But did you see that they are vertical? - How nice that is... - It's not like that. - Clear. - It's like that. - That's crazy. Fua... - In the back you have the Swiss Alps and a person making... "Swiss franc." - Do you know why they call them Swiss francs? No. - Because Switzerland was already conquered by France. - In the time of Napoleon. - Oh really? - Exact. - And what was the currency of France before the euro? I don't know. - The French franc. Ah... - So, during the conquest they imposed the currency. - And it stayed like that. They didn't change it. - The franc was left. Lake Zurich. - That's how it is. Again transparent, huh. - If you want to take a boat ride, there is also there. They go out. And a coffee too. - I was looking at some rental prices. - A very small one-bedroom apartment - it can cost you around 1,200 EUR per month. - One bedroom. - And to buy, the cheapest thing I saw was a small apartment for 600 thousand USD. To buy it. - So, that's when you realize that's where it's going to hurt the most - at the end of the month to pay the bills. - Do you remember that in Viñas del Mar - Yes. - Is there a famous flower clock? - Yes. - Look, here's one just like it. And there is a duck. - And there's a duckling there, laying eggs. They are newborn baby ducks! What a beauty... Five babies. I think this is the Zurich beach, the public beach. - Look, there is a boy who is preparing to enter the water. Yes. The floor is stone. - Che, what friendly ducklings. Yes. - Normally they run away when you get close and they come close. - And look here, what a beautiful park. - And people come here to sunbathe, enjoy. - Look how cute. - Well, okay, you have to enjoy what nature gives you, right? - What are those pallets they put there? - To lie down in the sun? - Be? Whoops! A. - Are you going to sleep there, my love? - Yes. - Well, get some rest. - How nice. - Ah, here is another part of the beach. - Che, is today Wednesday or Thursday? One day of the week, I don't know which one. - How crowded it is, isn't it? Yes. - It's very full. - Here it is, my love. We arrived. - "FIFA Museum" - Oh, is it free? No. - How much does it cost? I think you're going to go just because it's 24 EUR... - Look. If you want to go, I'll wait for you. Since I'm not a fan. - Yeah? - It's good, huh. - But I don't think it's fair to go alone, my love. - Wow, what a ladder that is. - Look. - Hey, look. - They were passing the goal that Croatia scored against Argentina. - Look at Brazil, it is always everywhere. - Because Brazil has... - Look, Messi. - Ah, look, Maradona's book too. The only thing we are going to do in the FIFA museum is use the bathroom. - Well. Luckily it's not 10 PM and I can flush. Hehee! - Good God, look what the bathroom is... - The FIFA bathroom. - What a luxury, by God... - Look at these toilets. - A marvel. - Well, let's take advantage of it. Like Lisanna said, it's free. - Mexico 70... - Look, from Chile, from 1962. - That's from Switzerland. - How much does this World Cup cost? - Let's see if it's heavy... - No... Lift it up... - It has the real weight. - 150 CHF cost. - If you want a shirt signed by Messi, - 4,100 EUR. - How much does Pele's cost? - CHF2,500. You can buy Maradona's, but you have to ask for the price. They don't tell you. - The haircut, 30 CHF. - Beard and haircut, 50 CHF. - Do you know how much they charge me in Estonia? €25. - And sometimes there are places that up to 30 EUR. There's no difference. - There's no difference. Look at the car gala. - The transit of Switzerland. - A Mercedes, a Maserati, a BMW, and up ahead... - A Mercedes. And there was a man in a black and white suit inside. - What did you think of which movie did you tell me? A. - Similar to the one in the movie 50 shades of gray. No...
- Oh, no, it looked like 360 days. - If you haven't seen it, women are going to like that movie. - Well, we stopped because we were hungry... - Here at the bakery. Hello, a piece of this cake. - Here or to go? Here. And one of these too. - Do you have Sprite or something? - No, we have iced tea or apple juice. - Iced tea. CHF 16.1 please. - Thank you so much. - They have 2 CHF coins. - You see? - From 1 CHF. - In other words, you have to take care of the coins here. - Because they are worth a lot. - Okay. - How nice. - A McLaren. Beautiful. - Wow. - Can you park there? It seems not. That whole bag, 27.89 USD. But we are going to eat like 3 times or more. Let's see how much the parking lot will cost. CHF14. How many hours? 3 hours... Well, it's the most expensive parking I've ever paid. - The most expensive of our lives. - I think that there, my love, is the campsite. Yes. - There, at the entrance. - Let's see if there's a place to camp. - I'm worried... - Sir, do you rent a place for a tent here? - For tent, yes. - How much is one night? - CHF33. - Okay, I want to rent for 1 night. - One night. - Yes sir. - From Spain? - I live in Estonia. - Estonian, yes. - The trip was long? - A road trip across Europe. - More than 2,000 kilometers. - My wife drives, I don't drive. - She loves to drive, she drives 10 hours without stopping. - She's very good. - Ready My love. - Do you know how much wine costs here? - CHF3.80. - It can't be... - An Italian wine, I swear. And one more. - One more, my love. - With the hunger we have... Get in, get in. Wii. - There is. Oops! It's tasty, but maybe a little more seasoning would be better. It doesn't taste much. - Don't you like it? Besides, the photo had tremendous chicken, right? Look. - Don't you have chicken? It doesn't have any pieces of chicken... Mmm... That's funny. - This is a lot of fun. - I love it. - It's going to rain here tonight. - There's thunder, everything. - Lisanna went outside, left the door open and filled herself with water. - The tent is getting a bit flooded. - There's water coming in. - I don't know if it's not made for the rain or... - We did something wrong, I don't know. Why does it come in?... - The water comes in through here. You see? - Enter through this... Oh! I'm getting the... - Do you see? Enter through the roof too... - Really? - Yes... - So, we have to abort the tent. Ooh! - Imagine if we didn't have the car. What would we do? - What are you doing? - No... - Ah, but look at the rain that caught us... - I can't believe you... Na... 37 hours to sleep in the car at the end... - The mattress is going to get wet, everything tomorrow. - Well, what can you do... - I couldn't sleep almost at all... - Unfortunately. This position of the car is very uncomfortable. And if. - Why is the tent open? - It's flooded. - Completely wet. - Look. - Imagine if we slept in there... - Lisanna was going to end up swimming inside the tent, poor thing. To be honest, it looks like it's going to rain all day today. Because there is not a ray of sun. We couldn't sleep. But the glamor is never lost, did you see? - Well, my people, now with a little better face - we wish you a good day. - Let's go get a coffee. - To this place that seems very beautiful. - That we find our way on the road. - Because we're going to a very beautiful place that was recommended to us here. - Do you know what I love about the houses here? - It's that they have about 20 windows, more or less, outside. - Why do they have so many windows, Lisanna? To see the view. I don't know... - Good morning. - Good morning. - A tea, a coffee and a sandwich. - 2 sandwiches. - 2, okay. - Thank you. - You are welcome. - Look at the giant cow bells. - Wow. - These are the typical houses of Swiss fields, of the interior. You see? - Everything is made of wood. - They are decorated with the same bells that they put on the cows. - The roof, also made of wood. - How nice. - And they have 500 thousand windows. - The lady explained to us that the windows are for light to enter. - Then, the house can take advantage of it. - That's why it has so many windows. - Mystery solved. Yes. We pay 17.10 CHF. In Latin America if we needed internet we would go to Starbucks. We end up paying for that. - Look, this is a residential house, Lisanna. - And it also has a lot of windows. - They all have lots of windows. - The only thing that worries me, do you know what it is? - In the morning when I wake up having to clean one by one... Mateo... - Clean all the windows. - That would give me work... Once a year you clean them... In the spring. - There's a bit of home in that window... - Now we come to the Seealpsee region. - Let's walk, more or less, about 20 minutes, I think. - A little more. - Because there is a very special place where we will be able to taste - Swiss cheese, but made by hand. - And I'm going to tell you one more secret. - I read that here it is possible to cross - the tennis player Roger Federer. - Because he comes very frequently and he loves this place. - Come on, Lisanna, come on. - Come on, come on, come on, let's go. - If possible. - We arrived at Seealpsee. - It is the lake of this little town, which is here on the mountain. - And one of the most beautiful lakes in all of Switzerland. - But what makes it more special? - What is on the other side of the lake. - I downloaded an altimeter. - What is this for? Not at all. - But I downloaded it just out of curiosity. - We are at 1149 meters of altitude. - Walking. - Mamma mia... I don't know which is more beautiful, Mateo or the lake. - I think Matthew. - Yes. - I think we're here, huh. Yes. - There are the cheese houses. - You have to open the gate. - Can? - Oh. - Why is it that there are so many cheese factories in Switzerland? 80% of the land is not suitable for agriculture. There is a lot of stone. So what are they going to put? They are going to put animals. Most are cows, there are also sheep. Goats. Alpacas we have seen. And they have the bells so they don't get lost. Because they release them. Imagine that they eat up the mountain. And later in the afternoon, if one stayed there, they will listen to it. - Do they only make cheese? Almost half of the milk they collect is used for cheese. - Oh.
And they say that the Swiss eat 21 kilos of cheese, on average, a year. And something more curious is that almost two thirds are small companies. Like families that make cheese, which are not large companies. For example, here it is small, right? It is a local production. Look, here comes the cow. - They are curious. And why are Swiss cheeses so famous? Because they are of high quality, they taste good and they are pure. Since the laws and rules of the environment, production, are very strict. They can't do anything. It has to be pure. - Ah, you ring the bell and they come to serve you. - 4.10 CHF, good price, huh. - I thought it would be more expensive. Ah, look, there is goat. - Of goat. And I imagine this is cow. CHF11.60. - Hello. - Hello. - Do you accept card? - No. - Cash only? - Yes. - This one, please. - This? - Yes. - Thank you. - Thank you. - Ah... I never tried it like that. Did you see that they sell Swiss cheeses in supermarkets, already cut? I don't know, they come from a big factory. But something like that, local, it's going to be my first time. - Yes. - Switzerland is one of those countries where you go by car - and you want to stop every 5 minutes. - Because you have a spectacular sight to see. Yes. - And you don't get tired. Switzerland seized the greatest of the Alps. - Hello. - Hello, do they sell cheese here or just milkshake? - Milkshake. - Milkshake. - Strawberry, chocolate, coffee. - Wow. - It's made with milk. - Milk. - Oh, okay. - Cheese right? - No. - Well, thanks! - Thank you. - Bye bye. - Bye bye. - I would like to try the pure milk from here. - Because they say it's delicious. - Yes. - You can even put the coin in the machine - and you can get a glass of milk, pure. But I know what's going to happen... - But it's going to hurt us. Because it is very pure. The one with the most lactose should have. - Look, Lisanna, that's where they milk them. Yes. Because I read that Swiss cheese is lactose free. Something like that. But the milk is obviously going to have. - If you want to really get to know a very native town of the place, - come here. Because they are going to see what a Swiss farmer is. Clear. Because look where they live, in the middle of the mountain. - We thought with Lisanna why not end this video trying a Swiss cheese. - Made by a Swiss farmer. - That he doesn't even know how to speak another language than Swiss-German. - Ugh, the truth that smells very good. It smells like fresh milk. - It's true. - And as soon as we tasted the cheese, - we can say the first impressions that we had about this country. - I really realized that there are things that are not true. - For example, that everyone is rich. - It is not. - People here earn and work to pay their cost of living. - They have a good quality of life, obviously. - And, second, the prices are not as high as we expected. - For the tourist. - Because the camping cost less than in Leichtenstein. In the same way, you have to come camping. If you want to come, do tourism in a hotel, your money will go a lot. There it is expensive. - That's true, it's expensive there. - But there are ways to do tourism with less money. Yes. - Or doing a simpler tourism. - It was. But wait. Before you try it, I'm going to give you a strawberry for dessert. Wait. Because there are wild strawberries here. - Well. - Saying "mhmm..." feels a bit strange to me - "This is delicious" - It's kind of weird to taste the food. - I would like you to bite a piece of this cheese - so that you feel how delicious it is. - So you can taste it. - I would love to pass the screen and give you a piece of this cheese. It's a little different from what you usually eat. It really shows that it is very fresh. And it has a slight flavor... - Like it's not garlic, it's not onion. Yes something like that. - It has a seasoning that I can't figure out what it is either. - We get fired from the video. And the next video is going to be even bigger. Don't miss it either. - Without a doubt. - So see you soon, we love you very much. - And thanks for the support. - Until next time. Kisses! - Kisses. - Bye.
