Hi there,

Well I can definitely recommend Switzerland as a place to live - we have a pretty high quality of life, absolutely stunning landscapes and scenery, and we are fairly well looked after by the authorities (we pay enough in taxes and insurance to keep this standard quite high).

I don't know of anyone who has ever just travelled around Switzerland (in a backpacker style, for example) due to the fact that things are not cheap here. Tourists often complain of high prices and they are right that we pay a lot for food, rent, etc - but we earn enough to (mostly) counterbalance these costs.

I backpacked around Australia for a while back in 2004-2005 and was surviving on about 20 dollars a day (including hostel cost) or less, but you really couldn't do that here.

On the other hand, Switzerland has so many beautiful places to visit, from old towns and villages to lakes and mountains, there is just so much beauty here. It is a fantastic place to go for people who want to see nature at its most stunning - so if you like that kind of thing then Switzerland just might be for you!

If you want to live and work here then I would definitely recommend it - there are loads of ½ûÂþÌìÌÃgers writing about their experiences in Switzerland, so I would recommend you read a few to get an idea of whether you might like it here.
