“It’s the city of 7 hills, so regardless from where you are, you are probably a 2 min walk from an incredible view point. Another thing I would highlight is the cost of living – when you do the full-time, you have to stop for a year, so being in a place that is so beautiful but with an accessible cost of living was a key factor for my decision.”
