people swimming to work in the river.

Known as Wickelfisch swimming, because you put your clothes in an inflatable bag which doubles as a buoyancy aid. Which is known as a Wickelfisch. @Cyclsite wants to try it. On the upside, she lives in Basel at the moment. On the downside, she can't swim.

Honestly, coming from Glasgow where the river Clyde is known to blister skin if contacted, it was incredible. Quality of life seemed pretty great.

(okay, I'm kidding about the clyde, there have been fish returning to the river recently, but still)

There were even some orcas spotted in the Clyde recently... but maybe they got scared off by the toxic industrial runoff?
