Philipp Degen admits Manchester City midfielder Didi Hamann has helped him settle at new club Liverpool.
"They've been telling me about the Albert Dock. I have been there but am looking at three or four places to live. The club helps with that kind of thing.
"I also know Stephane Henchoz from the international team but I haven't spoken to him about his time at Liverpool.
"But my first impressions of the city have been great from the start. I am very happy here. Now I am looking forward to success on the football pitch."
