ew to Bern

Hello, I am new to Bern, been here for 3 weeks now. I am from Indianapolis, Indiana, however I've spent the last 5 months in Rome, and before that Kathmandu, Nepal. I travel around and work on American Embassies. We are currently re-furbishing a building in Bern to be a part of the embassy here. So far I am amazed with the beauty and cleanliness of Switzerland and the friendly people. I was happy to find this forum and hope it will be useful to me. Thanks

HI RB,

welcome to both the forum & to Bern ... here are some links that you may find of particular value : Resources for those living in or moving to CH...

plethora of information on here, so delve into the threads with the search function. Anything you can't find, give a shout.

We have a few people around Bern, so if you need anything specific on the city or region, just post & we will be sure to give you an answer.

On a more social note, we run a drinkl meetup twice a month, so keep your eyes open for "Bern Livers & Lovers" in the social events thread. If you want to be notified by email, drop a line to ef.bern@gmail.com
I will make sure you are added to the mailing list.

Regards P
