Four years ago, Joël Stadelmann arrived at the Bauman Moscow State Technical University intending to stay for six months. Now an assistant professor at the university, the Swiss scientist sees himself pursuing a career in Russia. Stadelmann grew up on the shores of Lake Geneva, a fact that makes the 28-year-old a bit of an oddity in Russia. “I might as well be from Mars,” he says, adding that some students at Bauman University, as it is known for short, “come just to watch this weird animal try to teach in Russian”.

The fabulous destiny of a cross-cultural adventurer

Liam Bates’ childhood was typically Swiss. But somewhere along the line his life took an unusual turn – because for Chinese television viewers he’s become Li Mu, presenter of adventure programmes. He has taken his audience to visit the remotest corners of China, to see the flower-men of Indonesia, and to ride the steam train over Switzerland’s Furka pass.

Crudely made furniture rubs shoulders with figurines, tie-dyed socks and pots of avocados she has grown from their stones. Schweiker was born in Zurich in 1989, the second of four daughters. Her father was an engineer, her mother a landscape gardener. When she was about to start school, the family moved to Heilbronn in the German state of Baden-Württemberg because of her father’s work. A disclaimer is needed here. Читать дальше...
