June 2015: Summer Adventures
Ah, beloved summer! It’s the time to appreciate family, catch up with friends and relax after a hectic year. Perhaps there’s even an adventure planned. If you’re in Switzerland for the summer, or off elsewhere, we have great ideas on how to have a summer adventure. Have you ever wondered what Iceland or Amsterdam are like as family destinations? Want to learn more about geocaching, which can be done in Switzerland or elsewhere? At home, we have a long list of gorgeous, refreshing Swiss lakes to go and jump into. There’s more too, so take your time and enjoy our Summer Advenures issue.
Mothering Matters – Switzerland is now on Twitter. Follow us to keep updated on our latest stories and information. We’re still on Facebook too, of course, but you knew that!
See you in the autumn when we’ll be discussing Languages but in the meantime, have a great summer.
