La Croix sur Lutry, Switzerland

I believe that being surrounded by friends and/or family defines our sense of place, our sense of home. Yet leaving Switzerland which I often describe as “living in a postcard” has increased my awareness of the affect of nature on my personal well being. To be surrounded by such incredible natural beauty brings an inner peace that is difficult to describe and it is a daily reminder of our very small place in the universe.

So my return to Switzerland last week filled me with the joy of being there and also sadness on leaving it yet again, but I squeezed every moment of visual pleasure I could out of my one full day spent in Lutry and Vevey along beautiful Lake Geneva.

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that the effect of the natural beauty was and is further enhanced by the amazing friendship of 3 very special women and their families ( you know who you are). It is my connection to them that keeps my precious memories of this beautiful place alive.

“À bientôt”
