Swedish in Vevey

Hello. Just moved to this part of the world. Finding it a little difficult to meet other people so I heard of this website... very good!

Anyways, hoping that there might be some other internationals in the same area??

Re: Swedish in Vevey

Hi, Welcome to Switzerland,
No shortage of Internationals in the Vevey/Lausanne area, you might want to try joining the Lausanne contact list so you get advanced notice of what has been arranged for those of us in this area.

Not sure about Swedes, I know of a couple working with me here in Bussigny, and plenty of Finns about, including my girlfriend who will be out here in a couple of weeks. But then you know what the Finns say about the Swedes

hi,

make sure you sign on to the events contact list (run by HeatherM), and come along to the Lausanne area social gatherings - always good fun and plenty of beers, and plenty of friendly faces too.

Sam.

Re: Swedish in Vevey

Hi Tom,

Välkommen!

There are quite a few Scandinavians in Suisse Romande... Having an old Saab 900 has been quite a good way to find them, thanks to the Geneva Area Saab Enthusiasts (http://mbjork.web.cern.ch/mbjork/gase/)!! There's also this site which you can use if you're looking for a few more local contacts in the Geneva area: http://www.nordics.ch/

The whole area is very international, but since I live the other side of Geneva, I don't know much about what's going on in the Lausanne area.

Hope you enjoy settling in!
