My Swiss Home: A Year of Living and Working In Switzerland

Captivated by the beauty of the Swiss Alps, Wolfgang Koehler was determined to experience living in Europe, with its rich history, cobblestone streets, medieval buildings and endless cafes, as more than a tourist. That being said, he convinced his wife of 25 years to leave their children, family and home that they knew in Canada and go on this crazy adventure.

Through their initiation into Swiss culture, Wolfgang and Karin immediately discovered that living amongst the Alps was not just eating chocolate and cheese. Come join Wolfgang as he struggles to work in Switzerland and learn that trying to start a business with his colleagues in a foreign country is not that easy. Laugh along with Karin as she tries to steer through everyday life as an expat navigating the Swiss banking system, buying groceries, and even wrestling with Swiss appliances. Travel with Wolfgang and Karin as they discover Switzerland and embrace its traditions and cultures.

If you have ever dreamed of leaving it all behind and starting over in a new land, let Wolfgang take you on a journey of discovery and find out how it really is.
