Try to meet people in the same situation as you. Travel in the countries around as well as in Switzerland. And have fun!

Switzerland is a really nice country, there are a lot of places I would recommend to visit, cities such as Lucerne, Zurich, Geneve... It is the best place for winter sports. It is located in the center of Europe and there are quite good connections to other important cities in other countries, so travelling is almost obligatory.
