Is there anywhere in the world where all drugs are legalized?

I know Portugal (and maybe others) have decriminalized drugs and results are pretty good but going from decriminalization to legalization feels like a big step.

Drug possession has been decriminalized in Uruguay since the mid 1970s. As you mention, Portugal also decriminalized all drugs in 2001. Switzerland provides safe injection rooms and needle exchanges for harm reduction

Their point is that thats not 'legalization' on the sell side though.

So if thats it we have no real data on how that would work.
