Becoming Swiss, part one: 'Before it begins'
Becoming a Swiss citizen is a long and somewhat complicated path with a few hurdles to overcome along the way. A few weeks from now Jo will start the process of applying to become Swiss and with that, we are beginning a new series in our podcast: 'Becoming Swiss'. It'll track her progress and give you insight into one person's journey through the Swiss naturalisation system.
Did you know we have a Facebook group, Switzerland for English Speakers? It's a great place to ask questions or share experiences. Take a look!
