| | | Any good dating scene in Zurich?
I've been in Zurich for 6 months now, and while I have no problems chatting to people on a night out, I haven't really "met" any one per se outside of work. So, being young free and single I wouldn't mind taking my first ever stab at something like speed dating or normal dating and see what happens. I'm getting a bit bored of the whole monk-like singledom thing at the moment.
So... anyone got any experience or feedback with this sort of thing in Zurich? |

Meeting the "real" people here can be quite an adventure.
I would say just chat them up
or
post something in www.ronorp.net.

Ok amusing innuendo and banter aside, anone that can answer seriously to prevent this thread being locked would be great. |

there's plenty of dating websites in Switzerland and plenty of chicks available on them. Depending on how good your German is, it could be a valuable tool.
Hint: Go for the German girls, they seem to be much more forward and open than their swiss counterparts.

Attend a few cooking classes (check with Jack's Laughing Lemon) -- you're sure to meet a few young single women there. Besides, the cooking skills will come in handy when you invite a cutie home for a homecooked dinner (a cooking man is always sexy) and you'd never have to ask that awkward "your place or mine?"
Good luck, Dog.
