    Hello from Switzerland!

    Hi everyone!
    I can't believe I've been a medical spouse for 10 years, and I'm just finding this site now! My husband is an Orthopedic surgeon, and we are currently spending a year in Switzerland for his fellowship, with our 3 children (ages 7, 6, and 2). It has been an amazing opportunity with lots of ups and downs!

    We lived in Milwaukee, WI for the past 9 years, and we will be returning there in August 2012. (My husband has a contract to work at the Medical College hospital there - woo hoo!!)

    I look forward to communicating with people from *home* who I can really relate to.
    Best,
    Sarah

          Greetings! Friends of mine have been living in Luzern for 10+ years as expats because his company moved them there from New Jersey; they LOVE it, and we've gotten to visit a couple times. Glad you found us!
