Just moved between Lausanne and Geneva, looking to make new friends!

Hi Everyone! I am an american that just moved to Yens(near Morges) and would love to meet others living in Geneva, Lausanne and anywhere in between.


I am currently working on my french at UNIL, taking computer science courses(I promise I am not an awkward nerd) and paying for it all as an au pair for the year. I want to take advantage of my time here and would love to meet up with anyone interested in doing fun, unique activities. I tried paddleboarding for Fête Nationale and had a great time so if anyone has other fun activity ideas and wants to meet up let me know!

Ha ha, loved the "I promise I'm not an awkward nerd" bit. No shame in computer science, I say! :P

There's a bunch of things to do in the coming two weeks in Geneva, thanks to the Fete de Geneve.


1. Mini fireworks today, and then grand fireworks next week.


2. Free (and usually good) concerts in Parc La Grange (I've been there Wednesdays and Fridays, but there may be more on other days that I don't know about)


3. Near Baby Plage: Bands playing every night, makeshift rides, the works.

And since the internet has much a better memory than me:


1.http://www.fetes-de-geneve.ch/fr/


2. http://www.ville-geneve.ch/agenda/


 


Have fun while the sun shines, Geneva is quite lively in the summer!

Hi Brittany,


No problem. I studied in Lausanne (Unil, HEC in Information Systems--> not a nerd I promise...) and I work in Geneva and of course i know some good places. I've never tried paddleboarding, so why not...


Let me know if you're interested.


Cheers.
