My last name is Moritz and everyone has asked me if I've ever been, to St, Moritz? Thank You for your video is gorgeous. By looking at it, I don't think I could ever afford to live there, but it sure looks beautiful.( This song used in the video is for waiting to get your nails done,) (Not the vibe you want to go for), Maybe an Insturmental of Huey Lewis and the News. Greeting from Royal Oak, Michigan.... Where Detroit is
