Published 2022-10-18
You’re done with your tour of Switzerland, seen all the jaw-dropping sceneries of the Alps, tasted all the Swiss cheese and chocolate and about to head home. But we’re all too familiar with that stressed out feeling when there are only few days left of your vacation, and yet you haven’t bought souvenirs for your family and friends!
Far too often I’ve visiting friends asking me about WHAT TO BUY IN SWITZERLAND. Surely there's more than just chocolates...right?
If you have the same question in mind then you must watch this video till the end, because I’ve rounded up 10 most authentic Swiss brands you can find! No tacky fridge magnets, no noisy cowbells…instead I have sought to curate items that are either PRACTICAL, USEFUL or EDIBLE, that doesn’t add to the clutter.

The new version of the "stop2go" wall-mounted Mondaine is now on the market. Now the smartphone connects to the clock via the Wi-Fi network and, finally, the red hand moves continuously and not in jerks like the original station clocks.

Hi, nice video and great introductions! Are we able to buy wool slippers and the skincare pdts in physical shops in cities?
-
Hi Olivia, where to get the chocolate fondue set?. I’m in Zurich now. Didn’t see it in Dener Express.
-
Your video is always so easy to watch. Simple and yet so well done. 👍🏼 One question, Switzerland is my first country to visit, will all the chocolates melt if I pack in luggage and carry all around for another 10 days?
-
Hi, may I know in which store we can get chocolate fondue set ?
-
Does the chocolate melt easily? Will be travelling down to Italy before heading back to SEA
-
Hi Olivia! Have you tried brining cheese fondue set home? I read there are some with the cheeses inside. Apart from the weight, would it melt or spoil in the luggage on the way back home?
-
Hi Olivia, any recommendation for branded 2nd hand shopping in Switzerland eg Hermes,LV etc…
-
