Continuing my voyage across the continent, I check out of my hotel in Metz to catch the early morning train to Strasbourg, where I have a quick stopover to stock up on food and coffee. Thereafter, I proceed towards Basel, so I could spend most of the day in Switzerland. I explore the city centres of both Basel and Zurich, before getting a train through the Swiss Alps to Lugano, where I connect for a regional train across the border to Italy, finishing off in Milan. This is where I caught a Ryanair flight (off camera) back home for the weekend before resuming my Interrailing over in Germany the week after.

NOTE: If any of the captions go too fast for you to read, I would recommend pausing the video. Whenever I get the time, I hope to use the KZread captions feature to overlay captions that stay on for longer.
