First evening in Milan, Italy 🇮🇹
🇮🇳

Siddharth Srivastava Travel Videos

Milan is quite visibly the fashion capital of the world. It reflects in the way many residents are turned out in the streets. We arrived late in the afternoon and after checking into our hotel decided to walk to the famous Emmanuel Mall, one of the oldest in Italy.

Adjoining the mall is the the extraordinary Milan Cathedral, located in the heart of the city, where locals and tourists gather equally in large numbers to enjoy the magnificent ambience and vibe.

Why Switzerland 🇨🇭 is so clean?

One big reason is systematic garbage disposal. Heavy fines also play a part.

I have been to Oxford Street, London, a few times. Taking my parents there for lunch followed by a rickshaw ride was, however, special.

Swiss trains that do not Stop, on their own 😳😳 🇮🇳

Switzerland की बटन वाली ट्रेन 😐😐

In Switzerland, some adjustments need to be made while traveling by trains that operate in smaller and less well known routes. Or else, you could end up missing the train or fail to alight at the right destination.

Switzerland's train system is one of the most efficient and safe in the world. It is very popular with the local population, including school kids. This is a shorter version of the Vlog I posted earlier.

Pompeii, Naples, Italy 🇮🇹
🇮🇳

यहा🇮🇹 2000 लोगो की मौत 🌋 हुई, कुछ सेकंड मे

It was a as school kid that I first learnt about Pompeii. I think it was a Geography class and we were studying about Volcanoes.

Mount Vesuvius featured prominently. I remember there was a black and white sketch of Pompeii, alongside a colour picture of Vesuvius, to highlight the destruction that a live volcano can cause.

What struck me about Pompeii, when we visited the well preserved ruins in Naples, Italy, was the way the city was so well organised: streets with footpaths, the drainage, the shopping areas, the residential quarters, the homes of rich, the amphitheatre, the VIP box, cafes and restaurants.

The principles are in play even today, 2000 years later. Of course, one does feel a little overwhelmed to be exploring a location where hundreds of people died in an an instant and a bustling city was completely destroyed. Vesuvius still looms over Pompeii, a grim reminder that mankind can never match the power and fury of nature.

By the way, Vesuvius is considered an active volcano.

A little bit of London, UK 🇬🇧 (Updated)
🇮🇳

Siddharth Srivastava Travel Videos

It is always heartening to come across new technologies that make life easier. An example has been UPI payments in India, that have considerably simplified online payment processes. While wallet payments are popular in Europe, like it is in India, inter-bank transfers continue to be unwieldy.

Goes to show that India, that continues to lag developed country standards in infrastructure development, is pretty quick to adopt latest technologies.

Public transport is another domain where latest know how can make a material difference. I experienced that in London for the first time, where contactless wallet payment (Google Pay, Apple etc) can be seamlessly used in buses and the tube.

No buying of ticket between specified stations that is valid for a certain period. One can change the itinerary if needed, mid-journey.

International Border on a Bridge 🇫🇷 🇮🇳

Siddharth Srivastava Travel Videos

On our way back home from Strasbourg to Switzerland, we decided to stop by at the Europe Bridge that connects France and Germany. Apparently there are several such crossings across Europe, but for us it was the first time walking across from one country to another. The international border was right at the middle of the bridge.

France to Germany and back 🇩🇪 😳

Trevi Fountain, Rome, Italy 🇮🇹
🇮🇳

Siddharth Srivastava Travel Videos

First impressions matter and go a long way in estimating how the future experiences are going to turn out. In a big city, one likes to assess the state of the infrastructure, public transport, crowds, price of food at restaurant, traffic, behaviour of the locals that begins from the hotel reception.

In the case of Rome, what strikes right from the first instance is the history associated with this ancient city. Unlike many other European cities, Rome escaped extreme bombing during the World Wars, due to which a lot of the architecture of the city has been preserved.

Without doubt, Rome is one of the most historic cities I have ever visited. And, on the first evening itself we got a sense of the same while visiting the famous Trevi Fountain followed by the equally well-known Spanish Steps, that were built in the 18th Century.

Summer hike, Les Diablerets, Switzerland 🇨🇭 🇮🇳

Siddharth Srivastava Travel Videos

Les Diablerets is actually better known as a ski town. During summer, however, there are multiple trails that are quite popular.

We chose one. Though we never managed to complete the hike, the process was invigorating. Some exercise and fresh Swiss air can only do good.
