Re: How did you find this forum?

I was searching the Internet for resources for learning Swiss German and I found a link to a sub-forum here. I found it very useful, found out about some really great aids to help me familiarize with Swiss German, and I liked the rest of the forum as well.

Hi, everybody!

I actually heard of this forum from a friend in Lausanne.
And was happy to discover a very user-friendly colourful site!

Cheers

Found the site through Google whilst searching for English speaking job vacancies. Have only come to Basel three months ago to join my Fiance who has lived here for some time. Hope to learn loads!!

Re: How did you find this forum?

I am Swiss, my Better Half is American. We had problems with forest roaches in our home in rural Michigan, so I googled "forest roaches," and one of the first hits was a thread on the EF.

Glad I found the Forum. We didn't get any help concerning the roaches, by the way, but I found important info on all sorts of other things, and once in a while I can help other EF members too.
