Equal Time

So just to be fair, I thought I should mention that not all trailing spouses are women. I don't know how many expat house husbands are here in the CH, but I do know that one of my favorite expat blogs is written by stay-at-home-Dad Iain Welle-Skitt.

I wasn't going to mention him, mostly because he writes better than I do and that annoys the hell out of me. His posts are laugh-out-loud funny. Check it out. You'll see what I mean.

While we're at it, you should read Confessions of a Hausmann from Pulitzer prize winning journalist Jonathan Freedman.  I was hooked after I read his Ten Tips on How to Become a (Bad) (Medium) Good Dad.

One more. Read the wickedly funny Swiss Cynic. If you've ever cursed Swiss church bells, his latest post is for you.

Sundays in Switzerland are generally a painful experience. Apparently it’s a national law that every occupied building must be within ten yards of a church, and that the church must have bells capable of producing a decibel level which would shame a Metallica gig.

Equal time over. I've got floors to mop.

  4. Elisa and Expat Traveler,
    Glad you checked the blogs out. Good stuff, isn't it? And funny. I only have one joke. Guy walks into an office with a duck on his head. No wait. That's not right. Never mind.

  5. Ian and Swiss Cynic,
    Very glad I found your blogs. Will definitely help me make it through the until the actual Swiss Spring arrives, which I think is in June (also known as the beginning of the road work season).
