Hello guys!
Everybody slept well?
On this picture you can see a Swiss rapper, Stress, I like his music and his lyrics. He is married to an Ex Miss-Switzerland and has many songs for advertisement.
You can see one advertisement at the bottom and one here. The advertisement is for Coop a Swiss shop for food, writing materials and much more things !
Here's the other video : Stress - Coop
Switzerland is a little country and it's divided into 26 parts, the parts are called canton.
Maybe you think it's full of cows, farmers and full of mountains. Partly it is like that, but not only, there are also good shopping miles, party's and bowling centers.
Some things I wanna show you:
1. Street Parade
I already went to the Street Parade many times. It's a matter of taste, but I like it.
At the Street Parade there are always many People who are styled and dressed freaky, but there are also normal or party dressed people.Whole Zurich is a big party with electro music, there isn't a chance that something happens like at the Love Parade, because nothing is isolated. The Street Parade is always from 1.00 P.M until midnight. Last time it wasn't so long because unfortunately the rain was to much. But everyone could celebrate longer in clubs as long as they are old enough. In Switzerland you can go into some clubs at the age of 16 years old. In the last years there was always a main station at the main train station with famous swiss DJ's like Sir Colin or Dj Antoine. But this year it hasn't taken place at the main train station, but it has taken place in the X-tra under another name. Maybe it's because of the Love Parade thing in Germany. Because at the Main train station it would be in a area. But I couldn't go there because at this date I wasn't 16 years old and they controlled very strictly. At the street parade's there are always trucks like you can see on the picture. Mostly 20 or more trucks.
2. Swiss clubs
The night life of Zurich is not without. There are much clubs in every bigger city of Switzerland. I know the clubs in Zurich most, because this is the nearest big city in Switzerland, so I gonna tell you the most about the clubs in Zurich. The most known clubs in Zurich are X-tra, Kaufleuten, Dynamo and the "alte Börse". The clubs are mostly open from 8 or 9 p.m till 3 or 4 a.m. Alcohol is alloud at the age of 16 but not everything, just beer and some slightly alcoholic drinks. heavier alcoholic drinks are only alloud at the age of eighteen, of course also cocktails like Sex on the beach, Caipirinha and Margerita.
At Swiss party's there are mostly motto's per example Hit attraction ( electro music ), or reggeaton party's.
There are many public transport's in Switzerland to go home after a party night if you had to much alcohol or no car.
X-tra is mostly for people at the age of 16 and kauffleuten is mostly at the age of eighteen.
Unhappily the prices for entry or drinks are not cheap.
3. Shopping miles
In Switzerland are shops in every City like everywhere I think, the only thing that's maybe special is, that there are only a few shopping centers in Switzerland, the shops mostly are standing alone somewhere. So it's pretty fun to walk from shop to shop. Like clubbing, shopping is very fun in Zurich, because there you can find almost everything!
In Zurich there are many shops, from very cheap to very expensive. There is a Burberry, Louis Vuitton but there is also an H&M, Tally Weijl.
In Zurich at the bahnhofstreet there are mostly quite expensive brand stores. And distributed over the whole city are the cheaper boutiques, or the popular Teenie shops like H&M, Tally wejil, Claire's, New yorker or C&A (Clockhouse).
And if you walk a little in the lanes you will find shops like Da Soul, Jamarico, Carhartt, Soho and much more!
So you can find all kinds of style in Zurich ( Carhartt: Skater or just simple clothes, Soho : Gothic and punk and Da Soul : hip hop clothes).
There are also food shops or shops about Handy's, Cd's DVD's and all kind of electronic stuff.
Not long ago Zurich also opened a shopping center called Sihlcity. Sihlcity has got all kind of things per example Shops of course, take aways, restaurants and even a cinema!
There is a Dosenbach ( shoe shop ), Blue Dog, BIG, H&M, Zara, Zero, New Yorker, PKZ and allot more.
4. Chill out in my place
That's the best thing you can do here. Switzerland has got allot of parks with nice green Grass, with very delicious take aways and allot of things you can do.
There is bowling, hanging out in the park, meet friends (of course like in every country), go to the cinema.

| China garden Zurich |
Of course I wanna show you what places it's cool to hang out in Zurich because, Zurich is just my favourite Swiss city and near my place.
There is a very nice park in Zurich near the Bellevue place, the park has also got an China garden and a very delicious Asia take away with much entertaining people who are showing things. That's my favourite place in Zurich to chill out and the park is just next to the lake!
Zurich is even planing a nice skater park outside!
5. Some Swiss "Stars"
On this picture you can see miss Switzerland 2010 since September, Kerstin Cook (21), she did a little scandal. At the miss selection ceremony she lied about her studies. She said she studies biology in England at the Oxford Open University. The media found out that there's no Kerstin Cook at this university in England. Then she said, she meant the open University and studied media. But again it was a lie, they asked her and she said, she makes a media studier in the Internet at a Oxford College distance learning and didn't want to know anything about the open University no longer.
How you maybe figured out I like Stress very much, I saw him life to at the openair Frauenfeld. He's married to her since 2008 and they have a son together : Noël. I think Melanie Winiger was one of the most beautiful misses of Switzerland. She has allot success. Now she is a good actor in many Swiss movies and she has even a movie together with Stress called Breakout. In the Movie Stress plays a bad guy in the hip hop scene and she plays a Youth State Prosecution. Here's the trailer but unhappily just in German but it's worth. The trailer is mostly filled with music from Stress and the whole music is from Stress.At 0.32 u can see Stress and at 0.58 you can see Melanie Winiger.
There are more movies too but this one and a movie called achtung, fertig, Charlie are my favourite Swiss movies.
On the left side you can see Michelle Hunziker.She's a half nederland and half swiss .1996 Michelle met Eros Ramazotti, an Italian singer. 24th of april 1998 she married him. Since 2002 they live separated. They have a daughter together called Aurora. And they had a very ugly custody battle.
Michelle Hunziker is a model and a moderator.
At the moment she presents a German show called Wetten Dass...? with Thomas Gottschalk.
It's not my taste but another Swiss "star" is DJ Bobo, but he's especially something for children. He has big stage performances and he's married to a dancer of him and has kids with her. He presented Switzerland at the Eurovision Song Contest in the year 2007 but without success. He is actually the most successed Swiss musician. A song of him : Click
Not my taste also but on this picture you can see a swiss musician group called Gotthard. Unfortunately the singer died this years, just some weeks ago ( on the picture in the middle ), Steve Lee (1963 - 2010) ve Lee was killed in a motorcycle accident 10 miles south of Nevada on Interstate 15 when a semi Truck hit a parked motorcycle which subsequently struck and killed Lee. His girlfriend Brigitte Vosst Baldini and Gotthard bassist Marc Lynn witnessed the motorcycle accident. Gotthard made rock music.
Now I wanna show is the most successfull Swiss casting- Star Fabienne Louves, you can even see her in a Swiss advertisement.
From 1998 until 2003 she sang in the girlgroup Girls to girls and was the opening act of Boney M. and No Angels.
2007 she came to the Swiss casting show calles Music Star and won.
Her music is in Swiss German.
For music of her --> This song is my favourite together with Marc sway (watch Bottom)
And on the right side you can see Marc Sway, 
He makes Pop- Rock. His mother is a brazilian and his father is Swiss, he grown up with two languages. In his youth he sang in a Gospelchor, with sixteen he had his first show before many people with Jazz music. 2002 he has got a record deal with BMG
He makes good music in English!
And the last Swiss "star" I wanna present you is Bligg He's a Swiss rapper, at the age of 16 he was involved in co-called Freestyles. Here's a video of him
6. And last : Switzerlands Openairs!
Switzerland is a very good country for openairs because of the huge Grass surface. OMG look at this list!
There is an Openair Frauenfeld (my favourite one), an openair St. Gallen, an Openair Gampel and allot more.
First something to the Openair Frauenfeld, the openair Frauenfeld is an hip hop Event. This year I went to and saw some famous rapper and the best one of course : Eminem, but I also saw Jay Z, Stress, Wale, Bandit (Swiss rapper), K.I.Z (German rapper group), Samy Deluxe, NAS and Damian Marley, D12, Raekwon (from Wu-tang) and alot more smaller acts !Three days ( the hottest 3 days this year ) in July! The biggest water fights with water guns! The river as near as you can walk! you sleep there with tents. There are allot party tents, they play music til 5a.m! Allot Take Aways, showers and toilets!
You can go as an V.I.P or as normal. At 1pm the shows begin with the smaller acts! The Openair Frauenfeld is the biggest hip hop Openair of Europe and I saw allot of people from other countrys. The people there are great! I lost my people more than 1 time there, but the other people are so friendly, you can start talk a little with them and then you notice that the whole afternoon you spent with them was georgeus. It's easy to make new friends. The openair Frauenfeld is every year with always huge acts!
Here is also a video
From the other openairs I don't know that much but they are alwas different styles!
Why don't you come to Switzerland once and look if you like it as much as I do?
