Hi there,
I'm not really new to Switzelrand ('ve been living close to Lausanne since July 2008), but it's only now that I finally decided to join glocals (heard some good stories about it a while ago:-)
I'm originally from Poland, after living for a while in the Netherlands, moving here was a bit of a cultural shock for me (the fact that I did not speak/understood French at all also wasn't helpful I guess ;-). Nevertheless we've settled pretty quickly and enjoy our life here :-)
At the moment I'm taking care of my 6 months old son, following intensive French classes and in November I go back to work.
If there's anyone interested in family activities in Lausanne area or just meeting up for coffee, etc. let me know!
