A lot of people have moved to Zurich, so it's much more international, not just Swiss that like it's opened up.

So things have changed.

Yeah, the art market has changed as well.

I mean, this road itself with all the galleries that are here, of course, brings international presence.

But was there some, I mean, I'm curious, was there like a political decision to invest in culture or was this the private money that kind of started to circulate more freely? I

mean, Switzerland is a tax haven, so it does bring very wealthy people to Switzerland for those reasons.

I'm presuming there's a big influx of people that have come to Switzerland that have left other countries.

who precisely that they are, I'm not going to venture to say very international in that sense.

So yeah, maybe more with time.

Maybe people have left London since the situation there has changed.

I know a lot have moved to Italy, but yes, it's a very safe lifestyle.

It's beautiful.

We have a lake here.

So I understand people want, I mean, I'm here again and happy here.

So maybe that's, maybe it's the sereneness of Switzerland.

Cleanliness, everything functions beautifully.

I mean, I think that does inspire a lot of people to move here.

And then, yeah, and that just brings change to a city.

So I'm curious, because, I mean, for example, Monocle magazine, they list like the most livable cities every year.

And I think Zurich has topped that list for decades.

Right.

But then on the other hand, you have maybe Financial Times or similar publications that list the most expensive cities to live in.

And then Zurich also tops for decades.

Right.

So it is clearly not easy to come here as a foreigner.
