Zwischen der Schweiz & Kolumbien: Loco Escrito erzählt seine Familiengeschichte | Helvetia | SRF

Loco Escrito, whose real name is Nicolas Herzig, perceived Switzerland as paradise from an early age. From the bread and fresh air to the efficiency and work ethic: "I get along better with the Swiss way of life," says the half-Colombian from Wetzikon. The older he gets, the more he appreciates the living conditions in Switzerland. In "Helvetia," he reminisces about formative moments in his life, such as the multicultural atmosphere on the football pitch, happy family celebrations, and his first gold album, which hangs in a studio in Altstetten. The musician enjoys returning to Colombia and wants to show his daughter life there one day. Nevertheless, he always looks forward to coming back, because Switzerland was, is, and always will be his home. 👇 TOPICS IN THIS EPISODE 👇 ––––––––––––––––––––––––– 00:00 – Intro 00:19 – Introducing Loco Escrito 00:30 – Many Cultures on the Football Pitch 02:55 – Growing Up in Wetzikon & Family History 04:00 – House, Family & Dog: Typical Happiness 05:24 – Switzerland: Paradise 06:17 – A Visit to the Old House 10:20 – Emotional Memories 11:48 – Live and Let Live 12:45 – About Colombia as a Country 13:50 – School Days & Big Dreams 14:51 – Feeling Like a Stranger in Your Own Land 18:03 – Reflecting on Youth 19:25 – Idyllic Switzerland & Broken World 21:41 – A Visit to the Studio 23:55 – Closeness to the Swiss Culture 24:40 – Stable Life in Switzerland ________________________ ▪ Production: Morpheus Media ▪ SRF Director: Sarah Christen © 2023 SRF ________________________ This is Helvetia: How does the place where you grew up shape you?
