Hi, I'm Izza — and I've made it my life's work to help people feel at home.

I was born and raised in Basel. This city is in my bones, its streets, its rhythms, its hidden gems, and yes, its paperwork.

From a very young age, helping people has been my greatest joy. My very first job was in elderly care, and that experience confirmed everything: I wanted to spend my life making things easier for others. That path led me into the pharmaceutical world, where I spent years navigating complex systems, thinking critically, and always, always, keeping the human being at the centre.

But I kept noticing something.
International colleagues and neighbours would arrive in Basel full of excitement. And then, quietly, they'd struggle. Not just with the admin, but with the loneliness, the disorientation, the feeling of not quite belonging yet.

Standard relocation services handle the boxes and the paperwork. Nobody was taking care of the person.

That's the gap I created Iz Living to fill.

I bring together everything I am: a health scientist, a Pilates instructor, a Basel insider, and someone who genuinely loves helping people find their footing. My approach is holistic, because a successful move isn't just logistical. It's physical, emotional, and social too.

Why "Iz Living"? It started as "A to Z Living", but I quickly realised no one person can know everything. So I became I to Z: I'm your starting point, and together we build the rest. My trusted network of specialists covers what I don't. And of course, those are also my initials.

This is easy living. This is Iz Living.
