Hi, I'm curious about the health care part. Can you buy medication, such as painkillers or allergies medication, without a formula? is it too expensive?

Hey Amy,
You’re video’s are soo informative!
I have one doubt, did you enrol for the uni’s part-time opportunity after arriving or before ?

Damn...stores closing at 7 and not open on Sunday..😮

I am always surprised that most of the Swiss blogs do not mention this typical Swiss feature. Nope - no gasoline stations open during weekends other than on major Highways. Switzerland is most certainly not a "weekend trip" country. And that includes most Restaurants and Retail Shops. The only exceptions - major railway stations and Airports.

To earn money in the international community in Geneva - English is good enough. But when it comes to spending what you earn - you better speak French. The local French-speaking community actually resents not speaking to them in their local language and you will find it difficult to get the service you need.

Damn, the neighbour thing is sadly true. Swiss-germans have a subReddit just for these (r/buenzli). Sorry you had to experience that. 😅

Aw, thanks for watching Guillaume!! ☺️🤍 I’ll be sure to check out the subReddit 😅
