      Swiss - soon to be in Adelaide

      G'day, we are Swiss and will be moving to Adelaide in January 2012. First on a student visa, we will try to find an employer who would sponsor either of us - most probably my partner as ICT Business Analyst of Electronic Equipment Tradesperson (suggestions are always welcome :-) ).
      I am sure we will have many questions on different issue -thanks already for your help.
      Cheers

      Where in Switzerland are you from? It's one of my favourite countries to visit- mainly the Bernese Oberland area. Stayed in Iseltwald for about a month many years ago and loved it. Returned about six years ago for a short visit.

      Can't really help you with work issues or even immigration, but I'm sure others will.

      Bienvenue/Willkommen!

      Feel free to ask anything - there's usually someone who can offer help, advice, or just random ramblings!

      I can only be nice to one person each day....today is NOT your turn...and tomorrow isn't looking too hopeful either.

      We live close to Berne, the Capital of Switzerland. I have been skiing many times in the Bernese Oberland above all in Grindelwald and Adelboden. I love to ski. So that's for sure something I will miss.

      I moved to Adelaide from Zurich in Feb last year, so if you've got any questions about how things compare, feel free to throw them my way...
      Safe travels, RockDr

      Hello RockDr - back from our short stay in Berlin - we actually have many questions. Would you have any suggestions with which bank to open an account in Adelaide ? Were you able to do this already from Switzerland ?
      Any suggestions on good dealers for used Holden or Ford cars would be appreciated.
      Also any tipps for short stay accomodation would be great as we are still looking for a place to stay from Jan 6, 2012 until we get a permanent place to stay. Cheers

      You will still be able to ski in Australia, we also have snow, but not in South Australia, mainly in Victoria.
