Pierino Lardi is 73 years old, and a Swiss national currently living in Caracas, Venezuela. He has been a member of the Council of the Swiss Abroad for 15 years and represents the interests of Swiss nationals living in South America.

I work on behalf of the Swiss nationals living abroad as I still have a strong connection to Switzerland and don’t want to lose my contacts or network of knowledge.
