So how is Zurich?

When I visited home at Christmas I was asked so many times - "So how is Zurich, I'd say it's really quiet? I'd say there isn't much craic to be had?" Here's some words that come to mind thinking back on my time here so far....

Ankle deep snow. Heavy trams grinding. Underfloor heating. Nature / City balance. Little to no rain. Old fashioned bikes. Conservative clothes. Cobbled streets. Vanilla pod Yoghurt. Smell of hot chestnuts. Ice rink view through window. Frequent silent trains. Church bells ringing. Heavy ski boots. Farms in the city. Bundles of tied paper. Water fountains. Magical Winter lights. Grapes from the vine. Second hand havens. Wilderness park. After school swim in Zurich lake.

All in all a pretty good experience so far.
