Not from SA myself, but I know quite a few of you in Luzern, when your next rugby match is on, head down to Pickwicks, Legends or maybe Frankenstrasse 6 and you'll no doubt meet a few of your fellow countrymen.

Re: Any South Africans in Switzerland (CH) ???
Hey

I am South African, from Johannesburg. Now living in Geneva. I dont think that there are many of us down this part of the country but i have seen a few Springbok jerseys and South African flags on some cars.

It does make you proud.

Re: Any South Africans in Switzerland (CH) ???
If you search through all the threads on the EF with key word "South Africa" you will find lots of entires. I would also look for social events in calendar. There might be not to many but it's better than nothing...

I am quite revived after lekker three-week long visit back to SA (JHB, PTA) especially after seeing my all good folks at braais with brandy and Castle. Lots of ongoing construction for WC2010 and digging for Gautrain along N1 in vicinity of Centurion and Midrand made me wonder hey. Lots of new shopping malls grow like mushrooms after rain...

Even Zim has improved tremendously with variety of food stocked shelves.
