A splash, a dash, a swig, a titch - all a Gutch.

I feel accepted but I also speak Swiss German and have a Swiss husband and work a typical Swiss job 😅

I think what did it for me was understanding I didn’t need Swiss friends to be accepted. I have Swiss friends but I also have a lot of expat and immigrant friends.

Coins! All the same colour and shape. The ½ franc and 10 rapper look the same.

It's so funny you mention that, and I apologise for the late reply. Because growing up here, I can see from afar which coin is which, but Jo sometimes has the same problem.

However, when I am in England, I have problems with Pounds, as they look the same to me (although they are clearly better differentiated than Swiss Francs).
