    Swiss Friends

    Well, as I said, I don't know in what village you live, but in mine (ok in my opinion it's not really a village anymore its more a little city of around 9.5 thousand) there really is plenty of opportunity (ok, it's almost impossible that everyone will find a club that's suitable for him). From the ubiquitous "Turnverein" over the reading club to the local women's political forum, there is really plenty of opportunity. Of course if you live in a close knit community of a couple of hundred people, I grant it, it gets difficult. But I think, as has been said before, this is not really a Swiss specific issue.

    But honestly, what I don't really get, and you don't have to answer to this if you don't want to, but you are married to a Swiss bloke, why do you have an issue finding Swiss friends? I mean, some of my friends have girlfriends that come from other countries, that speak no German and only English (and not all so fluently), but we were always very keen of giving them a warm welcome and they were fairly good integrated.
