Switzerland

Switzerland is bought with money and repaid in order: transport, healthcare, safety and nature reach a level you get used to instantly. Costs are the highest in Europe, with rent, insurance and food on a different scale, though salaries match. Summers are warm and short, winters snowy, and the mountain valleys run on their own calendar from November to April. Entry and status require a job or substantial means arranged in advance, and local rules, from quiet hours to waste sorting, are learned in the first week.
