Yesterday, just as I was sending an email to a Dutch woman living in Geneva, asking her questions about expat life in Switzerland for a magazine story I'm writing, I received an email from a Ukrainian journalist asking me questions about expat life in Switzerland for a magazine story she's writing.
Weird as this convergence was, it's sort of what expat life is like all the time. All the time you are living as an outsider in an interesting place, always soaking it up, while people keep asking you how you like it.
I like it.
I always think it's hard to answer the question of 'do you like it?'. The real answers would take too long to give. Every place has something fabulous to recommend it and its own unique troubles.

Hi Less. I agree. There are always pluses and minuses, but always a bottomline. In a way, my blog is a continuing tally of the yays and nays. For now, it's a yay.
