Hi, I am a 48 years old and about to move to Zurich with my husband. I am very keen to meet new people, join book clubs, art groups, gyms etc. I have 2 girls of 20 and 22 in the UK so will not be meeting friends through the schools and have a fear of being lonely!!! Please get in touch if you are in a similar position

All the best as you settle into your Swiss adventure.

If your in the Zurich area give a ring when you get here
My "other half" is a woman of a certain age as well, and has sent you a PM
