Do you know who invented the Frisbee — and what it has to do with us - at InterNations? 😉 In 1957, Walter Frederick Morrison sold the rights to his flying disc (now known as the Frisbee) to Wham-O. And guess what? On January 23rd, we might just be tossing one around ourselves — as a fun little game

Tips and Advice on Switzerland from Your Fellow Kenyan Expats

Obviously, expat life in Switzerland goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Kenyans is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the Swiss mentality and way of life. Kenyans in Switzerland are a part of our community, calling cities such as Geneva, Bern, Zurich, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow Kenyans in Zurich, for example.

Wondering where to shop for Kenyan delicatessen, want to discuss your national team's latest match, or simply talk to someone in your native language? Become a member of the Swiss InterNations Community!

  • Our network is the best place to meet expats from Kenya.
  • On the Switzerland Expat Forums, you can get competent answers to all your expat-related questions: how to find a babysitter fluent in your mother tongue, where to get ugali in Zurich, etc.
  • The InterNations Places database for Switzerland has information on the nearest Kenyan embassy and many other institutions.

From the mountain resort of Zermatt to Interlaken, the outdoor and action sports capital of Switzerland, you can meet supportive and friendly Kenyan expats in Switzerland on InterNations.

Meet and Mingle with Fellow Kenyans in Switzerland

Additionally, InterNations hosts regular expat events and activities in Switzerland. Our get-togethers are sure to cater to your taste as well: as a member, you can partake in cozy gatherings to enjoy some Swiss rösti, join one of our huge expat celebrations with hundreds of participants in Zurich’s best locations, and much more.
