I started blogging for other expats and those at home curious about what life is like here.
This blog is about my life as an expat mom. I will post about my hikes, traveling and shopping around Switzerland, and Swiss culture.
About me: My name is Brittany Andrews. I was born and raised in Atlanta, GA in the U.S. I left behind the only place I have ever lived in December 2009. I now live in Zug, Switzerland with my 5 year old on and I love it! I enjoy hiking, travel, painting, and playing music.
