About the author

From my birth up until I turned 23 I thought I was just an American girl from New Jersey. But then things changed: in 1981 I moved to Switzerland and ever since then I've been trying to figure out where I fit. The stories in Inside Outlandish chronicle some of the amusing challenges I've experienced as an ex-pat in the land of Heidi.
In the meantime I've raised a family, had a variety of jobs (inlcuding gluing lables on schnapps bottles, writing advertising copy, helping the lost and confused at the airport, translating, teaching, catering) and have still to find the answer to my national-identity dilemma. But that hasn't stopped me from getting appointed to our community's Commission for Citizenship - a group of good Swiss folk who interview foreign nationals who would like nothing more than to become owners of a Swiss red passport. Maybe I can pick up some clues from the candidates as to what it all means to really be Swiss. Or maybe not.

In the meantime my answer is YES to: Do I ski? Do I eat cheese? Do we have flush toilets? and NO to: Do I yodel? Do I have a secret bank account? Do I live on an alp? Any other questions?
