New Brit here in Zug looking to make friends free evenings and weekends for socialising etc.......

Hi there welcome i will be in geneva 9th Sat - Jason

Whats brings you to switzerland?

Pickwicks to watch the rugby, would be a good bet, to make friends.

Welcome to Zug. You`ll certainly find English speaking folk in Pickwicks.

Welcome

Seems the community in and around Zug keeps growing. and growing. Welcome to the forum and you won't have a problem finding English speakers here.

I guess Kati wanna see some swiss culture, now it's a good time to get in touch with it. I recommend you go to Lucerne this Monday or Tuesday night it's Fasnacht, kind of carnival. It gives you a good impression of the 5th season and it's a good occasion to meet new people on the street or in bars whatever.
You do not speak any german, no worries a lot of expats join the fasnacht and most people on the street speak english.

Have fun

Andy

P.S.

Thank you everyone for getting back to me, me and another nanny are going to hit pick wicks on Saturday so hopefully some of you lovely people are there to meet up with......... Fasnacht week is preety cool I work in the day as a nanny so if I finish early tomorrow I will sure take off to Lucerne to see all the carnival xx

Hi Kati,
As andy said, the Fasnacht week in Luzern is a great chance to enjoy the Swiss culture. Tomorrow there is the Monstercorso, a large parade of music bands. Some of us are going to watch it next to the Schweizerhof Hotel. If you want to join us, jus drop me a PM.

Enjoy your stay!!

There are a lot of expats in Zug, so you should be able to find courses/groups in a variety of different areas of interests that are in English. I found a significant amount by googling zug + english + my interests.

I hope this helps, I realize it's a bit vague

Zug Rugby Club are playing against Zurich in the Swiss National Cup on Saturday in Aegeri.

You are more than welcome to come and see the match.

If you need more info/directions just send me a pm or check out the website (link in my signature).

Could you kindly provide names of Zug based Clubs that one can become a member of (sports, business, art, music, etc). I speak some German

Another one new to Zug, just moved in last friday. Anyone who plays tabletennis and cricket feel free to contact me

Just ask for the list from your local Gemeinde.

This is the case of someone who is thinking of moving to Zug so they do not have a local Gemeinde yet. Which Gemeindes would be best to contact for English speakers? Which have the biggest concentration of expats living in their area in Canton Zug? Thanks

I dont know every gemeinde in Zug. I only know of my local one, and i speak German so i have no clue if they speak english or not. Sorry.


Hard to say, at a guess i would think Baar followed by Walchwil, Cham.


cheers
