I was wondering what are people’s experiences of having and raising children in a different country from your own, specially if your partner is a local. Did you find it challenging not having your family to support you? Did you manage to have them be bilingual? Do you find it’s hard for them to identify with your country, and if so, what are good ways to help with this?
You’re right. But there’s something about Switzerland that creates particularly … close-minded people, dare I say it? Alas, they will probably be multilingual and relatively well off and well educated so that’s good.
