Living in the Know - September 2018

Living in the Know - May 2018
In May’s podcast Catherine and Lisa discuss going “home" for the summer holidays. Sometimes a trip back “home” for the summer holidays can leave expats feeling a bit disappointed - not everyone is keen to hear about their life in Switzerland. Staying in guest rooms, sleeping on sofa beds and visiting lots of people often leaves these expats feeling like they haven’t had a proper vacation and they return to Switzerland exhausted! Catherine gives some tips and hints on how to optimise your time and get the best out of these trips, and Lisa gives some great gifts ideas to take home, ones that aren’t too expensive and will arrive intact! She also teaches Catherine a fun French expression. This podcast has kindly been sponsored by Federesque, a coffee table book about Roger Federer.
Living in the Know - March 2018
In March’s podcast, Lisa and Catherine discuss where to source expat products in French-speaking Switzerland - from hunting out American "Texas Pete’s Chicken Wing Sauce" to "Lyle’s Golden Syrup” from Britain, they name shops and websites where you can find such products. They also chat about whether we should simply adapt to the food in the country we live in and forget about buying expat food stuffs, or whether it's still OK to taste a bit of “home" from time to time. In Lisa’s French minute, she teaches Catherine an expression which means “here we go again”.
Living in the Know - January 2018
Try out a new activity in 2018!

This podcast has kindly been sponsored by Meher 4 Fitness.
Living in the Know - December 2017
This month Lisa and Catherine suggest 24 gift ideas in an audio "Advent Calendar". Most of the gift suggestions are locally sourced and can be bought in Switzerland.

Living in the Know - May 2017
Catherine kicks off the May podcast by talking about an exhibition that has recently opened in Nyon, which tells the story of bathing in Lake Geneva. Crammed full of interesting items like old swimming costumes, the exhibition also features archive photos of families swimming in the lake and posters promoting the lake’s leisure activities. Moving on to the topic of flowers, Lisa tells you where you can get lots of tulip bulbs for a really good price in May, and highlights two of the Jardin Botaniques worth visiting in the local area. She also teaches Catherine a couple of French expressions connected to the word “flower”. This month’s podcast has kindly been sponsored by GEMS World Academy Switzerland.
