This week I chat with Mike, a Swiss-Italian stand-up comedian, about life in Switzerland: the good, the bad, and the perfectly organized.

We dive into the Swiss mentality, what it’s like trying to make friends and date in such a reserved culture, the country’s love of rules (and when it goes too far), and whether Switzerland is a place he truly loves… or one that sometimes feels a bit too confining. We also get into how Swiss-Italian culture differs from the rest of the country.

I talk to Cecilia, a Swedish-Finnish woman who has had enough of the Swedish dating scene. We dive into the Swedish approach. Why Swedish men are famously passive in their approach, why Swedes expect to hook up sooner rather than later, and the laziness that has ensued from this.

I chat with Alina, a Ukrainian-Canadian travel creator, who recently made a bold move: relocating from Canada to Bulgaria. A few years ago, she told me she wanted to move to Sofia, and now she’s done it!

We talk about what it’s really like to start over abroad, whether moving to Bulgaria was worth it, the biggest challenges of expat life, and if she misses Canada.🎙️ Tune in for an honest look at life in Bulgaria as a foreigner, cultural adjustments, and what it takes to build a new home from scratch.
