Switzerland: Amazing views in Lausanne and Chexbres

I lived in Switzerland a few years ago and this is why this country has a special place in my heart. Well, it's not only that, Switzerland offers spectacular views that just takes my breath away. I was lucky to live and work in Lausanne and till now have been able to travel there quite often. However, as I'm taking a new job, I don't think I'd have a chance to travel to Switzerland as often as I've been doing for the past few years.


So when I was there recently, I took photos to capture the scenery... the architecture... I was in Lausanne and Chexbres...

Switzerland: Reminiscing the time I lived in Lausanne

I was in Switzerland this week. Aside from a series of business meetings, I had dinner with my colleagues in Le Chalet Fraisse; the cheese fondue was lovely! I reminisced about the time I lived in Lausanne and how I enjoyed every second of it! I lived very close to the lake and across our office. I usually shopped for foodstuff at Migros in Ouchy and my clothes, bags, shoes etc. in Saint Francois.
I also thought about how I really miss my former boss. She helped me achieve my dream of gaining an international experience by offering me a job in our headquarters. She believed and trusted me. She allowed me to grow my wings and fly! Now I'm taking a higher responsibility at work and learning so much from it (and hopefully contributing as much as well). I still keep in touch with her although she left the company to set-up her own consultancy business. She helps women (and even men) to shine... We admire her; we are so fond of her. She was not just a boss; she was and still is a friend.
