Hi,
My name is Eva and I moved to Switzerland a couple of months ago.
I am 33, from Vancouver, Canada, I work in Zurich as a Product Manager for a Computer Vision spin off at ETH Zurich and I live in Fribourg.
I love skiing, hiking, biking, and love to be outdoors in general. Cannot say no to wine, cheese and chocolate either. 
Really looking forward to making some new friends once this lockdown ends.
Happy Monday!

Welcome to the forum and to Switzerland.
Do you commute to Zurich every day (when not in lockdown of course)? Long journey.

Hey!
Yes, I work at the ETH Zurich, at the Department of Biology more precisely. Do you work at ETH Zurich as well?

Sorry, I didn't precise my question. I was wondering whether the company is located at the Campus? Is it at ETH Honggerberg? | Quote: | | | | | Hey!
