Hi Amy,

I'm a native English speaker and could be interested, how would you propose to make it work "online"?

Regards

Tim

Hi Tim,

I think we can communicate by QQ(it's a chatting tool used in China), or ICQ, thus we don't need to face-to-face, and though we are far away, we can talk to each other.

Your idea?

Best regards,

Amy

Amt 好！

我刚看到了你的forum topic. 

你还想找一个 language exchange partner 吗？

我叫郭凯琪 (Katy), 我是加拿大人。 我刚才搬家到日内瓦 为了找工作，因为我的未婚夫是瑞士人。其实， 我们是在北京认识的。

我在北京住了3年多，还有在伦敦大学学了中文。

我非常想念中国和我的中国朋友。 我想在日内瓦找中国朋友，练习我的中文 和去玩儿。

I am happy to speak english with you and practice any time you want, a well as become friends :)

Let me know! 

Thanks,

Katy

Hello 凯琪, Amy, Tim,

你们好!

我是中国人， 住在日内瓦很久了。常想建立一个“中国圈子”，但是很不容易。我想你们的posts是建立“中国圈”的良好开端。

如果有同样想法，请给我发个短信。

Look forward，

Cheer

你好Jimmy! 

谢谢你回信！我也想开始一个”中国圈子“！这是一个非常好的意思。 你在日内瓦认识很多中国人吗？还是没有。

不幸的是我不会说德语，就英文，法文和中文。 

我的电子邮件是 [email protected] 

我现在求职，所以有很多空儿。如果你想见面就发给我邮件！

谢谢，

凯琪。 

Hello all,

I saw the proposal from Jimmy regarding "Chinese circle" and am wondering whether the circle has been established? If yes, I would be interest in joining.

Cheers,

Jing

Hi Jing,

We have 3-5 people. I tried organizing something but we did not have the same availability. Please join and let’s see if we could finally sort out an good date for everyone registered and the ones who are going to register…

Cheers,

I'm happy to join the Chinese community.

We can have dinner gathering sometime, play badminton sometime

Welcom Elaine!

Dear All,

What about having a new year drink together early Jan 2013?

Any suggestions or ideas?

Cheers,

Jim

I would prefer the one at Bel Air :)

Indeed, Boréal Coffee Shop looks nice. I will propose some dates after new year's day, but let me know what dates do not work so that I do not propose these dates...

cheers,

I am hoping it will not be during the day time on weekdays?

Hi all,

I would love to join chinese community too...so that I can practice and speak it more often.  For you info, I speak French as well, so if anyone needs any help with their French do let me know.

Best wishes

Hello, girls,

I am so glad to know you all here. It is a pitty that I just notice this post.I'm from mainland and have been in Geneva for 5 months but don't really have a lot of chances to talk to the others in my mother tongue (Mainland). I also speak a little bit cantonese since I've ever been in HongKong. I miss the feeling of having chitchat with friends in Chinese, having fun together and sharing with friends the deep thoughts about the movie, the hiking, the traveling and so on. I am now at the very primary stage of learning French. It is quite a different language system. Even I speak English, I still feel quite difficult to learn the French. I would love to join you, "the Chinese circle" but I don't know how. I mean, do you have a group in glocal or in QQ or somewhere(IM/forum) else? If it is the case, pls do let me know. Life can be much more colorful to hang out with you together in future! 

Wish you a happy new year (considering the right day of Chinese Lunar New Year is just passed, and acturally we are still in 正月), I hope you dont mind this late wish from me :)

All the best,

Tingting

Hello all,

Have been doing my internship in geneva for 1 month. Hope can join you during weekends coz it's soooo boring here. :)

I speak Mandarin, Cantonese and English. For French I'm a very beginner :P 

Best regards,

Ken

Hi all,

Just saw this thread and was wondering if I could join this community as well? :-)  I am Chinese working in Geneva for one year now...
