September 12–October 03, 2019

Austria, Switzerland, France and Italy

Margit & Christian

It all started with the Laver Cup. When it was announced that in 2019 it will take place in Geneva we found ourselves in a dilema because the date in the middle of September interferred with our plans to have an autumn hiking trip. But we could not let the rather simple opportunity to see Roger Federer once again pass by. So instead of just flying to Geneva and back we eventually went for something completely different: To go on a road trip to Geneva! On the way we would meet up with family and good old friends that we haven't seen for a while but also visit some completely new places as well! So we packed our bags and headed west. For 3 weeks the sun and blue skies were basically with us all the time – we were really lucky!!! Thanks to all the lovely people we met on the way, it was a real pleasure!
