Maybe not “anxiety” meds but prob something in pill form 😉 It’s more common than one might think. Ps: It’s also very common in advertising, great ads don’t just happen with organic brain cells 🤣

Good evening all,
With my partner we are considering making a move to the countryside of Switzerland, with a gorgeous RE project offering incredible views on immaculate mountains and lake. However, it is far away, and will require 1h+ train/car commute vs. 10 min biking right now. We are scared it will bite us back at some point, although COVID helped w/ remote working being a new norm. The project will be done 2024, so I hope to have a more relax job by then. Any similar experience to share?
