Known for its lovely Mediterranean climate, palm trees and vineyards, year-round golf and nearby ski resorts, southern Switzerland is also the place where the Italian lifestyle meets Swiss efficiency. Celebrities, industry executives and politicians alike have also chosen to settle here with their families to enjoy the security, healthcare, education and international financial platforms the region offers.
