Anyone ever lived in/moved to Switzerland? Would love some advice for things to consider when finding a place to stay in Geneva and other general recommendations/experiences. Any expat forums or other ways to find roommates or is studio the way to go? Context: early career, ~100CHF annual takehome.

Grew up in Zürich and Geneva, very fascinating country that is more international than it looks from the outside.
I have lived in/near: De-Roches and Dassier People are very international due to various organizations that are based here (UN, Doctors without borders, ..)
what I liked: - diverse group of people, although few Americans when I was there - interesting history and lots of museums/things to do - lack of "traditional" night life if you are into the London/NYC/LA scene (they do have clubs, just a bit different culture)
Best landscapes too. Did a roadtrip from Basel to Interlaken and it’s second to none.

Interested as well. Would you survive by only speaking English?
You can live a normal life if you don't speak any Swiss-German or German. It would be an advantage if you did, but there are plenty of internationals in these places.
In fact, if you land in Geneva, French would be the language you should know.
Interested in this as well. Zurich had some of the best food I've ever had.
Best women on the planet and it's not close.
this!
One of the few countries where you can find & date Swiss, German, Austrian, Italian or French girls. And they are, generally speaking, all hot.

Diversity, sure, but I haven't found people particularly attractive when compared to the usual major EU cities. Arguably comparing Zurich/Geneva with Milan/Paris is not super fair...
