9 Days and counting

Hi everyone,

I'm arriving in Zurich on 9th January on a 2 year secondment. I am travelling alone so I am hoping to use the EF as a way of generating a social life and making some new friends.

I enjoy playing football, squash, tennis and also cycling (for checking out the country as opposed to competitively) - I have been known to have the odd drink from time to time although after 10 years in London its about time I was a little more healthy.

I have already found many of the threads useful and informative so thanks to everyone who takes time to contribute and make life a little easier for the Newbies.

Wishing you all a happy New Year
Chris

And I'm 5 months behind in the same process! Also travelling solo so looking forward to meeting other EFers.

You'll find this forum great for all kinds of info.

All the best for your move and enjoy Geneva.

Pam

Phil that would be good. Let's try and get something organised and see if anyone else wants to join - the more the merrier I say!

For my sins I do work for one of the big 4 (although the smallest one in Switzerland)
