The pair appeared together on YouTube as they had a fun-filled day of train-spotting, picnics and football.
The TikTok star took Lehmann to learn how to drive a train as well as introducing her to a British picnic with pork pies and pork scratchings.
The Swiss international seemed unimpressed with the British cuisine, but was happy to be learning about trains from her companion for the day.
