| Hi Gary,
Interesting thread. This is one of the reasons why I set up this forum in the first place. I wanted a place where ordinary people can share their opinions and experiences of what Switzerland is really like. Often books or other sources of information are written from the author's perspective and may not apply in individual situations.
I may get shouted down by the rose-coloured-glasses crowd (who usually come from dirtier/poorer/less developed countries than Switzerland), but I think you have made the right decision.[...] | |

Thanks for all the input and information. My wife and I have discussed as many issues as we can think of, and it's looking less and less likely that we would relocate, even assuming I get an offer and the net salary is do-able.
There are so many benefits here that we currently have that we would lose, and with a family, a decision to "jump in" with both feet is not one to take. If this opportunity was 10 years ago, the decision would be much easier - no kids, no house, less in experience and salary requirements...
Yes, by not relocating, we would lose a lot of very interesting possibilities and opportunities - but are all those really worth it? At this point, I'd have to say no.
