Hello all,

I'm from California where we have beautiful sun for more than half the year, beaches everywhere and always something to do. I'm currently living here in Switzerland and finding it extremely hard not to be depressed. I've made a couple friends (an American and a German) which I hang out with, but coming from a culture where you always have at least 10 people to call for fun, I feel really lonely. I live in Wollerau, about 30 minutes from Zürich, so there's really no social scene in my area or opportunity for me to meet new people. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to get more familiar with fun things around here and meet fun people around my age?

Here's a list of things I've tried already and a little personal information to help.

* I'm 24 and just finishing college
* I work full time (probably changing to a 60-70% schedule soon)
* I live with my boyfriend who's Swiss
* I'm in the process of learning the language
* I've attended the Professional Women's Group in Zürich (older people)
* I've gone to the Toast Master's meeting (older people)
* I've talked to random people on the train
* I've thought about going to events posted on the calendar, but people
seem a lot older than me or married.

Thanks in advance for all your help.
