Travel is what Geneva expats miss the most – and eating out is a close second.

A survey by the online voucher company buyclub.ch asked expats in Switzerland what are they looking forward to most after the pandemic. 
69% said being able to travel again is the most important- which will be good news for the airlines. 

Also, a similar number say they will feel safe in a restaurant when they can reopen – and 43% say they will go into a restaurant in the first week of opening. 

60% say the restrictions have had a negative impact on their mental state, that’s mainly due to lack of social contacts. 72% say it has had no adverse effect on their jobs.
