South African couple Ivor and Heloise Clifford are leaving behind the big city of Johannesburg for the cooler climate of Switzerland. After studying nuclear engineering for 10 years, Ivor has his Ph.D. and recently landed a job with a Swiss scientific research facility, 25 miles outside of Zurich. He's a quiet, shy guy who prefers to live more remotely but his wife, Heloise is an outgoing, classical pianist who prefers an urban lifestyle. She needs to be where her fellow musicians are in Zurich. Property consultant, Maya Froehlich will attempt to strike a chord when House Hunters International visits this picturesque country.
