Is anyone moving from New York to Zurich in July?

Hi... I'm new in the forum. I'm moving to Zurich in July to start a new job. Anyone else? I'm so nervous!!! It's unnerving... I'm so going to be alone and although I know a couple of people in the city, I'm not really that close to them. Anyway, I hope to meet some of you and if anyone is moving around the same time, please feel free to contact me. Thanks and see y'all soon.

Of course! I start mid July but my relocation officer will start the ball rolling to find me a flat in Zurich soon. I'll be in Zh first week of July so I can start viewing flats...

Where in NYC are you? I'm on the Upper East. 87th.

What a coinky-dink, I'm moving back to Zurich from NY end of June. I'm moving back to my parents' home for a while to redirect my plans and work on some stuff, but I have no idea if I want to get back in contact with my old friends though.

Why wouldn't you want to contact old friends? I suppose being away does make one a different person, are you afraid they wont like the new you? or the new you wont like them?

I think it's the latter, they kind of annoyed my 5 years ago and I bet now we won't have anything to talk about anyway. Also, I went through so many friends here in NY that I've gotten used to it by now. As long as I can see my family again I should be good.

Brownie,
Actually, I'll be working in Boston but plan to visit an old friend in Long Island. Probably spend a day touring NYC too - then back to UK and a long drive in a van to Zug. It'll all be worth it!!
Kind regards,
Pat

Hi Brownie...I lived in NYC for the past four years before moving back home to Atlanta.....and now I'm moving to Zurich. We should meet up once you get settled, I'll be in a little earlier than you! Good luck!

Thanks, SweetDaisy. That would be so nice... Let me know if you want to exchange private e-mail. I'm really, really getting unnerved!!! Can't shake it, but at the same time, I'm really looking forward to the change. In many ways I can't wait!!!
