I was able to connect with other expats in Zurich who enjoy cycling as much as I do and organize weekly rides.

Why British expats move abroad (& how they like it)

Pursue your hobbies with amazing new friends
Do you want to continue pursuing your hobbies — or discover new ones — while living abroad? You can do that easily in our InterNations Groups, which offer activities based on a wide range of interests. Groups are hosted by dedicated Consuls with at least one activity each month. They organize everything from dinners to sightseeing to board game nights. For example, you can enjoy nature with the Outdoors Group, share your love of music with the Jazz Group, or go on an adventure with the Boat Trips Group. There’s something for everyone!

At the first InterNations event that I attended, I met my wonderful partner. We now live together in a flat next to the Limmat.
