Any advice on living there? I've been perusing englishforum but thought I'd try here as well.
My eldest DC is due to start reception next September and currently goes to preschool 3 days per week. We'd probably move in the new year. I don't think we'd get schooling funded by the employer and we're keen (though a bit nervous) to use the public/local schools.
I speak a bit of French. DH speaks none. I'd be working in a largely English-speaking office, whilst DH would be at home with the 2 DC.
We considered Basel for a role pre-DC but really didn't like it when we went for the look-see trip. The Swiss-German thing massively put us off and the city really didn't appeal much. I'm hoping that we'd find Vevey/Lausanne better. By better we mean buzzy, cool, nice shops, cafés, leisure activities etc. Basel felt, to us, a bit soulless.
Anyway, if anyone can share what life is like in that party of Switzerland that would be great. Thanks!
