Expat Experiences needed (Zurich)

We are currently collecting stories from the expat community about your experiences when coming to Switzerland in order to share these stories with those who are about to come to Switzerland or those who have just arrived. You know what it's like: After a few months you find out about the particularities of a culture and may say "If only I had known this from the very beginning!"

The funnier the stories are, the better. Please share your story in this thread!

Thanks so much already in advance,
Stephan
