Socialite Paris Hilton has secretly moved to Switzerland and has been living there with her boyfriend Thomas Gross for the past seven months.

According to yahoo.com, the 34-year-old has swapped the busy streets of the US for the scenic mountains and lakes of the peaceful European country since she got together with Gross, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Hilton, who likes to collect luxurious pieces to fill her homes, said: "I love art. I have homes all over the world, so I want to find great pieces for them.

"I'm specifically looking for pieces for my home in Ibiza and for my new place in Switzerland. I've been living there for about seven months now. And it's great to go to a fair where you have so many artists in one place who are all so talented. It makes the process (of buying art) so much simpler."
