My expat journey

usachinaswitzerland
Zurich, Switzerland

Since Dec 2014

Zurich, Switzerland

I am trying to settle into my life in Zurich where I live with my boyfriend. I want to start German classes and look for a job that will allow me to stay in Switzerland for longer.
In America I work as a Production Manager in TV Production. I also have experience teaching English in China and hope to do that again in Switzerland or Germany.
Switzerland is such a different country from America. I love learning about the cultural differences and studying the language. I like the diversity and being so close to many places I've never traveled before.

Thank you for the reply! Since I'm studying Chinese I was worried too much English would be spoken since it's close to HK. Glad to hear that's not the case. Read More
