From Alps to Aperitivo: Celebrating Love, Birthdays & First Steps into Italy   Sadly, it was time to say goodbye to the magical Swiss Alps and close this unforgettable Swiss chapter for the next time. Our hearts were heavy — Switzerland had given us more than just memories; it had given us stories, laughter, and a sense of wonder that will stay with us forever. But as one journey ends, another begins... A Sweet Farewell & A Birthday Morning   That morning was special. It was my partner’s birthday, and we celebrated it in our own simple, heartfelt way. The night before, we had picked up a little cake from Coop (yes, we practically hopped into every Swiss local store — Coop, Migros, Denner — in every city we visited!).   So, with sleepy eyes, laughter, and hearts full of love, we cut the cake. A little sweetness before a big journey. And a lot of giggles too — because by now, our suitcases were overflowing with Swiss chocolates and souvenirs , leavin...

  From Foggy Peaks to Gelato Streets – Exploring Mt. Rigi & Luzern The story of Switzerland never ends in a single day. After our magical Titlis adventure, most people would call it a wrap. But Swiss days are long, and our spirits were still high. So, we thought, why not two mountains in a day? Thanks to our Swiss Pass, we didn’t have to think twice. The next stop was Mount Rigi – the Queen of the Mountains. Cruise to Rigi The journey began with a peaceful lake cruise from Luzern, gliding across crystal waters surrounded by mountains. The gentle waves, cool breeze, and golden reflections of the evening light made the ride feel like a poem. From the pier, we hopped on the steep cogwheel train that slanted its way up to Rigi Kulm, climbing through meadows, chalets, and tiny villages. It felt almost unreal, the little red train crawling upwards as if it was pulling us into the clouds. A Foggy Surprise at the Summit Welcome to the Foggy “Rigi Kulm”, the kind of fog that swallow...

Rain, Revolving Gondolas & Snow Dreams – A Day in Luzern & Titlis   In continuation to our Kahani 7 , our journey from Interlaken to Luzern wasn’t as smooth as Swiss trains usually promise. Instead, we lived through a rare chapter — a train network failure . Delayed back from Saanen, we finally reached Interlaken, picked up our bags, and began the bittersweet ride to Luzern. As the train curved around the familiar mountains, the reality of leaving them tugged at our hearts. The turquoise Brienz River , shimmering under light drizzle, felt like Switzerland was saying one last goodbye before handing us over to another city. A Rainy Welcome in Luzern Instead of sunshine, Luzern welcomed us with showers of love . Umbrellas came out, luggage wheels splashed through puddles, and we finally checked into our self-check-in city apartment — simple, modern, and perfectly located. Exhaustion had wrapped itself around us, but cravings don’t wait. That night we stumbled into Kanchi ...
