An insider's view of life as an outsider. It's not a great shot. But that Silver Toyota Rav 4 just ahead of the street cleaner is our previous car. I saw the Google car and wrote down exactly where we were plus what was around us! The photo was taken during the Spring. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Expat-Experience: Done
http://expat-experience.blogspot.com/2009/09/done.html
An insider's view of life as an outsider. As you may have noticed, my frequency of posting has gone downhill in the last year. Global Baby keeps me busy and I just simply do not have the time anymore. With a second adoption expected in just a few weeks, I think it is safe to say that it could be years before I have time for this blog. So I've decided to just end it. It was a great ride, but it is time to move on. 1:58 AM, September 20, 2009. Luckily we still know where to find ya! We leave on Monday for ...

Expat-Experience: Obstacles
http://expat-experience.blogspot.com/2009/07/obstacles.html
An insider's view of life as an outsider. We originally called Continental Airlines in the United States to work out the details of moving the cats from Zürich to Minneapolis. It was a pretty straight forward process. Mostly because the United States doesn't actually require much in regards to importing house cats. ( Dogs are a different story if you happen across this blog while searching for pet importation information! I know they have their facts wrong, but the effort of arguing with a Swiss clerk wa...

Expat-Experience: February 2009

An insider's view of life as an outsider. Pagan Dance of Joy! The smoking ban in the Canton of Zurich will go into effect on October 1, 2009. RyanAir, the Irish discount airline, is going to start charging people to use the restrooms on the planes. How much lower can the airline industry sink? About a month ago we upgraded our internet service to the fastest connection available. Since that time our internet connection has, well, sucked. Downgrade back to the second-best level. Downgrading costs 100 chf.

Expat-Experience: One Swiss Mystery Solved
http://expat-experience.blogspot.com/2009/07/one-swiss-mystery-solved.html
An insider's view of life as an outsider. One Swiss Mystery Solved. We've run into this on several occasions ourselves and I hear it all the time from other Expats living in Switzerland. Why do the Swiss require all of our birth and marriage certificates to have been certified in the last 6 months? It has finally been explained to me! Apparently these documents get updated. Who knew? In Switzerland, and in most of Europe, your birth and marriage certificates are kept filed at your Heimat. Fortunately, we...

Expat-Experience: Leaving on a Jetplane
http://expat-experience.blogspot.com/2009/07/leaving-on-jetplane.html
An insider's view of life as an outsider. Leaving on a Jetplane. We are in the process of booking a flight for our cats, Max and Tilly. We love them so much and we will miss them dreadfully. But keeping them just isn't fair to them. I don't think so. Not to mention the fact that their former room is now a nursery and, lacking any other option, they have been relegated to the hallway. Not an ideal situation for any of us! So it is with sadness in our hearts that we are sending them back to the United Stat...

Expat-Experience: January 2009
http://expat-experience.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
An insider's view of life as an outsider. Lately while feeding and rocking Global Baby I've been watching a program entitled "A Place in the Sun" in which Brits travel to warm and sunny locations. Generally to purchase either a vacation home or a retirement home. Frequently they talk about how the house or apartment features an "American kitchen.". I cannot for the life of me figure out what they mean by that. The kitchens don't look particularly American or even much like each other. GLH so owes me!
