Switzerland

Switzerland, officially the Swiss Confederation, is a landlocked country located at the confluence of Western, Central and Southern Europe. It is bordered by Italy to the south, France to the west, Germany to the north and Austria and Liechtenstein to the east.

 

It is a location that attracts expats from all over the world.

English

The common language for many expats to communicate in.  It is also the common business language in many businesses.

 

Swiss will tend to stress they speak "a little" English. 

 

That usually means "a lot."
