Hello

Welcome to the Bilingual Tribe ! I'm Kéryann Baral Rimann, a soon-to-be mother of two and a Multilingual Communication student, living in the German-speaking part of Switzerland. I intimately understand the joy and challenges of multilingualism and felt a deep need to connect to a community that shares similar experiences to mine.

As a proud Guadeloupean woman, my primary goal is to ensure that I pass on my rich culture to my children, which includes my native languages: French and Creole.

I've created this forum to serve as a space where multilingual families can come together to connect, share experiences, and provide support to one another. To ensure a positive and respectful environment for all members, please to a moment to familiarize yourself to the following guidelines:
