Read MoreBasel vibe by Rik Bovens
A lot flows together in the city on the Rhine. As a creative Basel resident by choice, the diverse cultural scene is particularly close to my heart. The fact that, in addition to art, architecture, graphics and design are also an integral part of Basel’s city life is shown by the highest density of museums in Switzerland. I prefer to spend my time in one of the countless museums or on a city walk past the picturesque town houses in historic Grossbasel, monumental buildings of renowned offices and lively interim uses. Otherwise, you can meet me at a vernissage in an off-space or with friends in one of the authentic pubs in urban Kleinbasel. You can relax in the Lange Erlen and during cosy reading sessions in one of the snack bars on the banks of the Rhine, which becomes a pulsating lifeline on sunny days. And fortunately, the Rhine city is often blessed with nice weather.
