Swiss sub-thread.
Hello all.
There may be more of you British expats in Switzerland than have come forward so far, so please feel free to anchor posts here.
Cheers,
Bob
Thanks to Jerseygirl for the hint on etiquette.
We had heard of etiquette back in the '80s in Buckinghamshire, but I always thought it was some kind of sausage.

The silence is deafening.
Are there any Brits established in Valais - Sion or thereabouts - who are members here?
Valais is currently option 4 on my list.

Thanks Carolyn, I had guessed as much.
I go there as a guest on occasion, but find it has emphasis a bit on the wrong side of the rosti barrier for me.
I remember that a couple of years back when I was in Tessin/Ticino I heard Swiss German being spoken more than Italian, which surprised me a little bit. Mind you, I was in a pretty touristy area, Ascona.

Well, bring 'em on over here
I've a couple of good friends living in Switzerland at the moment, He was transferred with his work. They seem to be really living the life and the kids are doing well.

Hey everyone,
Does anyone know the requirements for moving to Switzerland as a Colombian national? Thanks!

Re: Swiss sub-thread.
But I don't get how you see African selling crap on the streets, or Asians/Latin Americans working in restaurants etc. Surely they don't have a visa paid for by work or huge savings.
So if a Colombian doesn't have a firm offer or huge savings, is it still legally possible?

No firm offer and no huge savings either.

Also see the official Swiss federation site, most pages are in English, some not as one drills down a bit.

Re: Swiss sub-thread.
I can't really comment on that in a politically correct fashion, but I happen to know of a few second and third generation Asian people living and working here legitimately.
