Newbie Chicagoan en route to Geneva

Hello/Salut/Hola!

My name is Bill, I'm going to be arriving in Geneva later this month. I'm a recent McGill law graduate and newly-licensed arrotney, coming for work at the ILO, and I don't know a soul.  I would be very much interested in meeting internationally-minded friendly and stimulating people!  I speak French and Spanish, have a strong professional interest in comparative law, international human rights and sustainable development.  I also enjoy playing soccer and classical guitar, singing and listening to choral music, watching and discussing international cinema, photography, and reading and writing poetry.

I'm also still looking for a place to live, so if anyone has a furnished apartment or room to let, or suggestions for how best to search for one, please message me!  Thank you and looking forward to making new friends! :)

Hi Bill,


Welcome to Geneva (soon).  Just sign up for the events/gatherings/groups and you should be able to find/meet new people fairly quickly.  Also, don't hesitate to post specific questions in the Geneva forum, there are many people that can help you with whatever information you would need.


Most activity groups are open so you can join them anytime.  The classifieds will also have rentals for apartments (both furnished and unfurnished)


Take a bit of time to explore glocals in general and you should find most of what you need.  Welcome to Geneva and glocals.
