Zurich (EN) : Zurich 14.11.2024, Bitchos, Tram & Bass

 
 

Salut Ronster

 

In a few weeks, the people of Zurich will vote on whether to retain or remove the «gender star»—you know, the asterisk in terms like «Zürcher*innen» that you often see in correspondence. This got me thinking about pronouns, which in turn got me thinking about a podcast i saw a while ago featuring British actor Sir Ian McKellen. He has decided to call everyone «love» because it's positive and inclusive. What do you think? Have a great weekend, love, and…

Give my love to the city

Concert: Los Bitchos! Crazy Band, Crazy Name

 

Los Bitchos! Imagine cumbia grooves meet psychedelic surf rock with a splash of 70s funk, all served up by four fierce women. Their tunes are pure dance-floor magic—think sunny riffs, global beats, and zero vocals. Just good vibes and killer energy that’ll have you dancing your way across the floor at Mascotte.

 
 
 

Saturday 7pm, Mascotte, Theaterstrasse 10, 8001

Shopping: My Favourite Local Shops: Kreis 1 - 6
 

Shopping: My Favourite Local Shops: Kreis 1 - 6

 

When I go shopping, I often end up between the shelves of large retailers. But i also know that I should really visit the «Lädeli» (small shops) of this city much more often. In every district, there are wonderful little stores with unique products, where you can still strike up a conversation with the people, who are usual knowledgeable and delighted to discuss their wares. To give you a good overview of these Zurich shops, I’ve created a list of my favourite «Lädeli» that I’ll continue to update. This week i'll present Kreis 1 - 6 with 7 - 12 coming the following week.

Web tip: Ready, Set, Type

 

Not long ago, a friend burst into my living room with a grin on his face and a secret mission. I was expecting an epic showdown, maybe a game of cards, maybe chess, perhaps pistols at dawn - but no, far from it. It was something much simpler, almost banal, and yet I couldn't resist the challenge: «Typing Race». Now i am terrible at typing but once my friend opened the laptop everything else around us faded away. Just us, the keyboard and the countdown. With the first click, the duel began: who can get the keyboard glowing faster? Either way, it’s a good way to improve your typing.
