The 7-day stay in Zermatt, Switzerland was my favorite trip to date. The crisp, chilly air. The clear and blue skies and greenery everywhere blanketed by snow. It was a town I wouldn’t mind to live in for the rest of my life. It was the perfect place to unwind in after the hardest trip ever from Milan.

Music Performance in Western Europe Seeing Europe and it's many treasures over sixteen days in a life changing experience. Not everyone can say that they got to perform in four different countries across Europe or that they have even been to Europe.

whips through my hair and a burst of adrenaline pumps through my veins. My skis land softly on the snow and I go flying down the mountain, traversing through bushes and trees. The terrain evens out a bit and I can now see the glimmering lights of Zermatt. I turn to the left in order to follow a trail well-covered by trees. I glide, occasionally pushing with my foot, to the end of the trail, where tucked inside of a small cave, lays a tiny wooden cottage. I abruptly stop and pull off my skis. Panting
