Fellow expats, this question was probably asked thousands of times but yeah. How do you cope with expat loneliness and how long did it take you to make some actual friends? I have been living in a different country for one month and I just can’t stop feeling lonely and alienated.

    having a hard time to believe that you made friends in switzerland. i was born there and even living there my whole life didnt bring me much friends. also a reason why i relocated. if you check /r/switzerland this is a very common topic

      Again. The experience is not the same for everyone. I keep pretty amazing Swiss friends with me. They are mostly from Lausanne and Ticino.
