Good luck with Switzerland.

Weren't you gonna buy an apartment in the Jordaan at one time?
Thought about it many years ago, geoff, mainly for investment purposes. Staying while I'm there and renting it out to friends the rest of the time (that's when I went to the dam 3x a yr).
However, it seems to go downhill every year and I'd rather invest my money where I'll be traveling to more often. Of late, I only travel to the dam once a year and it may become less than that after this 420.

But, I don't have much attachment to my place, as it's a rental and we're leaving in 6 months. Anyone want to swap for a place in Zurich, Switzerland? We're only 1-2 hours by train to several ski resorts, and Zurich has a world-class opera.

I'm very interested
