Hello Readers

Yes i am very new to this place due to work commitments of my husband i am also unemployed after working for 38 years in a cosmopolitan city. Ive just finished work in February 2011. I am a registered and licensed Australian immigration agent / consultant from Australia I am my own boss and I work now from home here in Schiers.

I am lucky that thecultural shock was looked after by my husband. If you would like to chat with me then you can EDIT: PM Only.

Welcome to Switzerland, Irene. I've no idea where Schiers is, so I'll look it up.

Just down the road from me. Welcome to the forum Kangaroo!

Wow, Schiers is out in the sticks !!!
(I'd suggest you try to slip down to Chur and locate a South African bloke there who has an excellent wine shop)

Welcome to the forum, and I hope the both of you settle in here well.

There are stacks of other Aussies on here who could help you with a "local" point of perspective on how to deal with things here.

Switzerland really is "opposite world" for us, but once you get the hang of it, the place is AWESOME !!!

Welcome to the forum!

I do a shopping tour in Zurich if you are interested. I was planning to one this Saturday...10am at the HB. I'll put it on the forum calendar...
