Aug 31, 2016 – [Wednesday] Travel Favs: Lauterbrunnen

Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland, taken on August 4, 2012

Switzerland might be too perfect sometimes. The grass is a perfect hue of green and the atmosphere is perfect serenity. Lauterbrunnen is the “Valley of Waterfalls” and from a viewpoint, I was able to see the perfectly calm and lovely little village spread in front of my eyes. It might have been love at first sight.
