Moving to Vevey

Hi Guys

My name is Jithesh and is new to the forum. I've landed up with a job with Nestle and will be moving Vevey by the end of August. Thought I'll say hi and would also like to make some friends... To introduce myself, I'm a New Zealand national of Indian origin. Was born and brought up in India and I moved to New Zealand to pursue further studies (Masters). Landed up with a job at Fonterra and New Zealand being a great country to live thought of settling down there. But couple of years ago I got an offer to work for a company in the Middle East. Thought it would be a nice experience and would return back to NZ, but it seems I'd be exploring a bit more... Right now both myself and my family (consists of my wife and a 6 month old kid) are looking forward to the move to Switzerland...

Cheers

A warm Welcome to the Forum! Interesting to read your Introduction.
It's quite a bit step you're taking together and I hope all goes smoothly with the move. Best of Luck with the planning.

Hi Jithesh,
Welcome to Switzerland. I live in Montreux, which is very near Vevey. I am in a very similar situation as yourself.
Maybe, we can meet up once you get here.
Regards,

Suleman

Hello Jithesh!

I am a "pure veveysanne" and wish you all the best in Vevey! You'll see, it's a really nice town, very warm, and pleasant to live.

Please contact me if you have any questions, I'll answer with pleasure!

Re: Moving to Vevey

Hello Jithesh, Hello all,

My name is Chris and I am new to this forum. I will also start work in Vevey in July and I would love to meet some new friends. I have lived in Sydney for many years and I do not know Vevey / Lausanne at all. Perhaps we can discover this region together?

Also I have been trying to look for accommodation, perhaps initially short term as I cannot make up my mind if I want to live in Vevey or Lausanne. It appears to be extremely difficult. If you have any good tricks, could you please share it with me as I am absolutely desparate.

In advance many thanks and I look forward to hearing from you and meeting you

Cheers Chris
