Not new to Zurich, but fairly new to the Forum

Hello everyone -

I thought I'd introduce myself.

My name is Elisa, I am originally from Italy, but have been an expat for the past 15+ years. My husband is Swiss, and the Zurich area is our "home base", but we have also lived in NY (Westchester Cty), Copenhagen DK, Los Angeles CA.

I have two daughters and I have been a SAHM on and off for the past 12 years, now that my youngest is in Kindergaten several times a week I am looking at my options as far as returning to the "workforce" - I'd like to try something new, so looking into higher educations and so forth.

I organize a monthly book swap (English books only) in Zurich, it happens during the week but it's a great place to meet other expats for a chat, to gt some free books and some great tips, make new friends. You can find more info here: facebook.com/pages/English-book-swap-Zurich/110609005681214

I also have a blog, , where I share photos, tips about Zurich and just random things like events I attended or things I like.

If you are in the Zurich area and want to connect, feel free to drop me a line!
