| | From Chile to Switzerland...
Hi Everyone! I would like to introduce myself. I am a chilean woman who got married to a swiss guy a year ago. We decided to live in Switzerland, so I moved near Zürich.
The year here has been interesting. I started immediately to learn German (at the beginning I could only speak English with my husband). Fortunately wasn't very difficult, so after finishing B2 level, I started learning swiss german...I understand a lot but I am still not able to speak.
I found this forum and it's very useful, I would like to stay in touch with english speaking people, I hope to find people from Chile too.

Hi coco.nails!!
well as a matter of fact I'm looking for interesting people to talk with, no matter if it's in English, Spanish or even German   
I've been to Mexico once, I love it, must be because I grew up watching those telenovelas, el chavo del ocho, carrusel, marimar, maria mercedes, rosa salvaje, etc,etc! It was part of my childhood so I think that may be the reason why I'm so fond of Mexico.
hope to stay in touch then | This user would like to thank profe1979 for this useful post: | |

I cant have this where im living as cablecom doesnt serve here, but as soon as i find another apartment and move in, i will hire this because i miss my novelas so much.
Do you have kids yet? I have 2 little ones.

| | Re: From Chile to Switzerland... | Quote: | |  | | | Pero por que hablar ingles cuando puedes hablar espanol. =-) | | | | | <-- Why speak english If you could speak spanish here (translation).
tipo welcome to the forum, we can speak spanish here but we dont because then the other members will feel left out. Is an english forum and the language spoken must be english. We often write in spanish but we put the translation next to it. Here are people from all over the world and if we start talking each in our language the forum will be caos. | Quote: | |  | | | I had cablecom in my old neighbourhood but then I moved and here only swisscom is available 
I want to have kids soon, but first I want to work at least 1 year here  | | | | | I think also swisscom can offer them, but swisscom is just a bit more expensive 
Regarding working before having kids is a very smart desision
