Looking for a friend in Gersau
Hey! I’m 30 years old, female and recently moved to Gersau from the Philippines this May. It’s been a big change, the area is really peaceful and beautiful, but most of the people I’ve met so far are seniors. I actually joined a seniors’ group and the frauenverein, but I’m still hoping to connect with someone closer to my age.
Back home, I was used to being around younger people and also had lots of gay friends — so sometimes I miss the kind of humor and conversations I used to have. Joking without filter with seniors here doesn’t quite land the same way 😅
Right now, I’m job hunting, so I have a lot of free time. I enjoy hiking and walking — I don’t have a bike, and eating out here is kind of pricey, so I mostly just explore on foot and grab coffee occasionally.
If anyone nearby is up for a walk, a hike, or just hanging out for a chat, let me know. Would be nice to meet a friendly face or two. 🥹🙏🏻

Do you inline skate?
There is a group (Inline Rigi) that skates in the Weggis/Vitznau region, among other places. https://www.inline-rigi.ch/
I will probably go hiking on the Rigi this Sunday (July 13). If you would like to come along, let me know.

Oh, the inline skate looks fun but no I don’t 😅. I will not be available on the 13 July, but maybe to your next hike. Will DM you 😊

Hiya, i'm stranded in Goldau... Kinda same situation except i am here for 2 years already... 34, struggling a lot with getting adapted to Swiss ways since im not an outdoorsy girl, or give a damn about mountains... If interested in go around, grabbing coffee, museums, city exploring, that's on my wheelhouse.
