What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

sometimes you have to be in control of the interview. One of my interviewers didn't have ay specific questions and just wanted to talk.

What are your general comments?

They are a small country-like community. For those who like clubbing and frequenting pubs this isn't your place. However, if you like skiing, riding your bike, running and staying physically and spiritually healthy, this is a jackpot. It's certainly a place my grandfather would love ...very slow paced life indeed!! You also need a car, unless you want to rely on the small shuttles that are funded by the community! My experience here was just very interesting!!!
