Der Bachelor 2020
Switzerland has a new Bachelor. As of October 21, Patric Haziri will be looking for his dream woman on the beaches of Thailand in the eighth season of the dating program of the private broadcaster 3+.
Down-to-earth jet setter who designs men’s fashion
A look at his Instagram profile shows that Haziri likes to travel a lot. Singapore, Bali, Bangkok, Berlin, Barcelona, Tel Aviv: to name just a few of his last destinations. In between there are always photos with friends or pictures of professional shootings. The latter is probably an expression of his passion for designing fashion for men, as the TV station writes. However, the new Bachelor should not take off. “Anyone who knows him knows that Zurich residents are also very down-to-earth and also enjoy simple things,” it continues.This includes hiking.There are no pictures of this on his Instagram profile. And women are also unsuccessfully sought. So it remains to be hoped that the ten weeks in Thailand will remedy the situation and that at the end of December the dietician can upload a Turtel photo with his queen of hearts.
A platform to make a positive impression
City President Roger Bachmann (SVP) is pleased that the new Bachelor is a dietician. “Basically, I’m always happy when dieticians are given a platform to make a positive impression and, in the best case, also act as ambassadors for our city.” It does not matter whether it is in sport, in art, in culture or just as a Bachelor on TV, says Bachmann on request. Whether the advertising effect is good or bad also depends on the behavior of the protagonist. “I do not know Patric Haziri personally, but I assume that he is a likeable and probably good-looking contemporary with decency and style who is perceived positively,” says Bachmann.
However, the city president considers it somewhat exaggerated that Haziri’s appearance on the program could be viewed as a promotion of the location. However, it is certain that the Limmattaler and the Dietiker are a relational and sociable people, says Bachmann. In the last Bachelorette season, for example, dietician Willie Kudese fought for the heart of Andrina Santoro. Zaklina Djuricic from Urdorf was looking for great love as a Bachelorette in 2016.
Attractive people in an attractive region
Bachmann himself does not think much of these dome shows, which are occasionally something to be ashamed of. And yet he has already had to watch the programs. “Every now and then at home I am forced to do so by the female part of my family.” And it wasn’t that bad either, Bachmann thinks. “To be honest, Bachelor candidates like the legendary Vujo with his sayings are almost funny and entertaining again.” Jasmina Ritz, Managing Director of Limmatstadt AG, has never seen the dating show before. That the new Bachelor comes from Dietikon speaks for the region. “It shows that the Limmattal is not only an attractive place, but that the area also creates attractive people,” says Ritz on request. This may also be due to the fact that the proportion of the youngest section of the population is largest in the Dietikon district compared to the rest of the canton.
“It would be nice if we could win Patric Haziri as an ambassador for the region.”
