Agree. There are systems here that supports that. On our side we would need to pay for the assistance so most people help each other because we cant always afford to pay. The Caribbean survived or is surviving by helping each other so its embedded in us to help. I appreciate it is different in other countries. Thank you ladies for your input.

Adding, regarding your hair, maybe an African hair salon could be a good business opportunity for you?

Never try to help a person in a wheelchair, they are very proud to be independent so they get offended if you try to help them. I know that because even a friend of mine that is on a wheelchair had a very bad reaction when I have tried to help him, it was like "I am a grown men, I can do it on my own, if I need help I ask". So today I just ignore when I see someone in a wheelchair or with other prosthesis, but I am still ready to help if someone ask me.

:D A really good question and from my experience quite difficult to understand for someone who's new to Switzerland. So I'll just explain some basics. Unlike in Germany or France, health insurance ist not funded by taxes. Having a basic coverage is mandatory and you can choose which insurance company and which model you want to go with. It is your own responsibility to get the insurance though. If you can't afford it, you can apply for subsidies. It is expensive, but then again you pay much less taxes as compared to Germany or France. We also differentiate between accident and health insurance. Accident insurance is covered through your employer. The system works well, but it is certainly more complicated than a single payer system like France or Germany have it. The quality of doctors, hospitals etc. I'd say is very good.

The integration into a community and the acceptance of diagonally opposed lifestyles. Grammarly is wrong. you come across as a very mature person. Having lived for 2 decades in Switzerland, I absolutely agree with your observations, but I am surprised that it took you only 5 years until you started to talk to your neighbor.

Norway is super expensive. I live in Slovenia. Its far more cheaper. But in slovenia itself capital is double more expensive then rest of country. Slovenian coast is beautifull. Also Croatia and Italy are like 10mins drive from each side. Tho if u wanna live somewhere really cheap go to Bosnia. The hest would he Sarajevo. Tho language might be a problem. P.S. Balkan ppl are more open to strangers and even if the dont speak english or just few words they will help u. While Germans, Italians, French, Spanish and English will come to you country and be mad at u that u dont speak their laguage. It happened to me few times as bartender. They would come to slovenia and order in their laguage and be mad at u dont understand them. So be prepared for that kind of mentallity. Tho nordic ppl speak very well english and also more open tho help even tho they're very cold from outside and respect privacy.

Do you have any notion at all why Switzerland is such an "expensive place to live"? No thoughts come to mind you could give us as an explanation as to the why? Aren't you curious "what's behind the curtain"? Do you think the reasons for Geneva and Lagos both being very expensive places to live could be slightly different? It would be interesting to hear your "meaningful" thoughts and theories. Also, did you wait 5 years for your neighbor to approach you??

Base on a look at google one known reason is geographical discriminatory wholesale pricing. The writer suggest that some wholesalers charge Swiss retailers higher than they do retailers in other markets. I have no proof of this but sounds logical. It happens in other situations. For example, being over charged as a tourist in some places. Its because they assume that you have more disposable cash. So I guess that is what contribute to the high prices in Swiss. Im sure there are many other reasons.

Most renters have to share accommodations, and a simple 2-bedroom home is almost a million dollars. Car insurance will be triple what you pay anywhere else in the country.

The cost of living in America varies based on where you live. Long Angeles or New York City would be as expensive as Switzerland if not more. And that's without any of the benefits. LA has very poor air quality and well as NYC. Both have high crime rates and homelessness. NYC is one of the dirtiest cities in the world. American healthcare is one of the most expensive in the world with low quality/effectiveness. I get your point but a flat statistic isn't accurate and doesn't include important factors.

About your example, that you "ran to help a guy in a wheelchair getting off a train, and he got really angry?" And you couldn't understand why? You were really ignorant, condescending and patronizing. And it wasn't his job to politely teach you about your mistake, he's a private citizen. You'd offend any person with disabilities with your ignorant behavior, in any country, not just there. Persons with disabilities know how to negotiate barriers without your condescension at their expense. They take care of their own activities of daily living. You're supposed to treat disabled people the same way you'd treat anyone ablebodied, no matter where you live: you wouldn't have made assumptions and run to assist a non-disabled person, but you assumed a person with disabilities needed to be "rescued." You shouldn't offer to grab groceries off a shelf when a disabled person is reaching for them, or offer any kind of assistance unless they ask you to, as examples. They're doing just fine as independent adults. The disabled are accosted with this type of offensive behavior all the time, not just by you, and it gets monotonous and tiresome. It wasn't his job to be polite about it or to educate you, either. That's all you saw, was his superficial physical differences from you, and you made some really stupid assumptions and decided to "rescue" him. You wouldn't like it if all we saw, upon meeting you, was your skin color and your island accent, and assumed that makes you stupid, uneducated and inferior.... right? Or any of the other negative characteristics I've read about, in your country of origin? You wouldn't like it if someone slowed down and simplified their speech rather than speaking to you normally, just because they see you're black and Jamaican, right? Or "only" female? People with disabilities know how to negotiate barriers without you, no matter where they live. They're adults, not children. And the disabled know how to ask for assistance, if they need it. Don't volunteer it. And furthermore, on that public transportation, they'd have employees who are trained to assist, and already have handicap accommodations. And the Swiss are especially progressive, they've got the budget for it. That man embarked on the train without you... what made you think he'd need to be "rescued" by you to disembark? Persons with disabilities are not helpless children, don't need your "help..." (or something as offensive as offering prayers to a total stranger, by the way, which would infer you pity them and don't think of them as human beings who are perfectly whole and independent just as they are, that you think you know spiritual secrets they don't know, and that they need improvement just because they make you uncomfortable). Your discomfort was your problem, not his. Most civilized places (developed first-world countries) have laws regarding handicap accessibility, including and especially Switzerland. Maybe you came from a poor, backwards island without enough legislation, ramps, curb cuts, Braille, handicap parking or accessible bathrooms and buildings, etc. But you're in Switzerland now. You were so wrong! It has nothing to do with the local individuality you decry, your "culture shock." It's part of living in a any country with universal accessibility. People with disabilities travel, teach, go to school and jobs, clean their homes, cook, go to restaurants and movies... they have full, normal personal and social lives without your "help." Think about the reasons why you assumed one, but not the other. At the very least, you were naive, and it's a naïveté that goes beyond borders. Extremely offensive. Lots of people act as ignorantly as you did. It's not our job to educate you about your mistake, unless we want to. I'm doing you a favor, because you're young and your learned prejudice can still be un-learned. Might I suggest that, along with the language and customs assimilation classes that many countries offer immigrants, you should also find out if there are local or online disability rights organizations to teach you proper etiquette? It would be worth your time, since the disabled are the largest, most invisible, often discriminated, minority In the world. You'll be facing the issue wherever you go, even if a person's disability is invisible. You aren't the only one to make such erroneous assumptions about a person with disabilities. It gets really old. And by the way, just so you know: never ever, under any circumstance, touch a person's assistive devices (wheelchair, mobility scooter, cane, walker, crutches, etc.) without their request or permission, or be inappropriate and ask about them. Some "adults" do. That's a violation of someone's personal space and privacy, and in some countries, touching or grabbing can be considered assault, including in America. Those items are a part of someone's body, basically. You don't grab people's bodies without permission, including that man's chariot. You need to learn more, think before you decide to act. "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." Learn to speak and live as locals do, learn how to see persons with disabilities. Why would you move to a foreign country and not assimilate? But the handicap thing... that's a universal issue, it isn't just in Switzerland. You'd offend anyone disabled, in any country, with that condescending, patronizing behavior. Stupidity is permanent, but ignorance is educable. So I've just educated you. You're welcome.

Thank you for highlighting my condescending, patronizing behaviour and for the great lesson. Young and stupid I would call myself but its ok, we all experience it at some point in life. Only if we were born with all the rules and regulations engraved in us. Since we were not born this way I will accept your scolding and try to do better. Learning never stop. You sound like a well informed person.

Really.....? After watching your entire video, I can't understand why you even moved, why you didn't even try to learn the most rudimentary things about Switzerland before you moved. Did you even buy a warm coat before you left? Doh. How could you not know Switzerland's reputation for high cost of living,and standard of living? Why would you even think everyone sells the same groceries, black hair products, or that the grocery store packages would display your foreign language? Everyone knows that stuff, but you. "When in Rome" you're supposed to "do as the Romans do." And you need to assimilate. You need to learn to do your own grocery shopping instead of hiding at home and making your husband do it for you. He's got his own responsibilities. You're his partner, not a second child. That's not an attractive look, and it won't serve you or your child well. Businesses would be glad to help you find what you need, if you politely ask for help... they usually speak English in Europe as well as German and French. You're not in the Caribbean any more. I can't believe how naive you are! How could you not know they're punctual, when everyone knows they make the best clocks and watches in the world? They're so fiercely independent, so honorable, that the Pope hires them as guards in the Vatican, they take an oath and are willing to die for him. They were historically members of the Hanseatic League, do you even know what that is? Did you get any formal schooling? Do some reading about that. It took them from being one of the poorest backwards European countries, to the wealthiest. In most civilized countries if you're late, the train, funicular or plane leaves without you, not just there. They've got businesses to run. The world doesn't revolve around your tardiness. In most countries you'd be fired for being late to work, even in the Caribbean. You didn't even try to prepare for their school system, their stores, their currency, their punctuality and transportation, probably even their toilets or recycling rules. You could have prepared. Your husband could've helped, too. Where the hell was he? You didn't try even after you arrived. So instead of learning to show their culture some respect, being punctual, you'd rather buy a car that isn't as green, and costs your husband more money? When you get to where you're going, you'll still have to be on time! Being late is rude. You're really stubborn about not assimilating. You're being disrespectful of the culture. Punctuality is another marker of adulthood and you're refusing to grow the hell up. How can you prepare your child for life, when you can't help him/her navigate? It's your job to be a role model and help him assimilate, so he'll be successful, not late like you. If he follows your example, he won't fit in or succeed there. Why did your husband even drag you along, you act like a second child, not an adult woman. He might not be around forever, you need to grow up and learn to handle yourself in the local culture and economy, or go back home. They have a high standard of living in Switzerland, and they get what they paid for. They're private, educated, conservative people. Great museums, opera houses, advanced educational system. The Swiss have glaciers that provide a lot of Europe's potable water, and that needs to be protected against global warming snd pollution, as well as their ecosystems to protect. They're very green, and that costs money so of course they've got taxes... but they get great roads and infrastructure, clean air, delicious foods, fresh fish, world-renowned cheeses and chocolates, great tourism, great medical care from cradle to grave, in return. You aren't pulling your own weight. Stop whining and acting like an introverted little child, and grow up. "Don't worry, be happy" won't cut it there. There were, and are, plenty of places online and in your new city, to help you assimilate. You're a burden on your family and the Swiss, instead of an asset. I can't even understand how you got this far in life, actually, with your ignorance and naïveté. Even where you came from, people have responsibilities, businesses to run, classes to attend, kids to raise. Stop being lazy, they won't tolerate it in Switzerland, or anywhere else with a decent standard of living. You can't even whine about language barriers as some immigrants must face, they speak English like you, as well as German, local dialects and French. Pull your own weight. You couldn't possibly have led as sheltered a life as you make out, you're lazy and recalcitrant. You're refusing to change, it's voluntary, and sweetie, the world doesn't revolve around you, it's your job to fit into their country,,not the other way around. Grow up. You could have even found a simple tourism show like American tour guide Rick Steves' TV series, to get you started. He's had numerous episodes on Switzerland, I just saw a rerun of one of them on PBS today. And their government and tourism publishes information about their country. They're prepared for immigrants. You've got no excuse. Did you really assume it would be easy to find ethnic hair products in Switzerland? OMG! You can get that stuff online. And in fact, you might even start a local ethnic business that sells it plus other stuff you miss... ethnic food ingredients, take-out meals or delivery, whatever ethnic cottage industry products Jamaica is known for. You're not the only member of an immigrant minority there. You've even got the advantage of being fluent in English, which some who go there seeking asylum don't have. They've got a lot less choice, compared to you. You've got no initiative. You're not stupid. Just naive, stubborn, lazy. The Swiss are industrious. Find a job. Learn to conform. It's an opportunity to live in a place many would envy, including me. Not funny or amusing at all. You don't even try.
