March 11-17, 2019

Doesn’t it feel like an eternity ago when we were parading around town, faces kissed by the early spring sun? We knew it wasn’t going to last, but goodness, going on week 2 of rain and grey has us dreaming up more exotic vacation destinations for the future holidays. Alas, we know the sun will come out tomorrow (metaphorically speaking, perhaps), so let’s grab our umbrellas and find some fun events that will keep our spirits up this week! Good thing Lausanne has quite a few offerings too:
