Where there’s a will, there’s a way. I had such an eventful week in Switzerland. Not only did I make new friends, go sightseeing and enjoy some amazing local food but I also got to see friends who I met on my previous trip. I met Patricia in May, 2019, when I was visiting Ibiza. We were sharing the same room in the hostel and Patricia was very outgoing so we immediately became friends. We’ve kept in touch since our meeting in Ibiza. That day she and her daughter came out of their way and drove to meet me in Lucerne, which is their favourite city. They invited me on a scenic boat ride before taking a cable car up to a very luxurious hotel in the mountains for drinks. The scenery was even more breathtaking when shared and enjoyed with a good friend! Many of my listeners tell me that they want to travel but often feel unable to because of kids and current family responsibilities. Patricia is living and breathing proof that it is possible to manage both. She is a single working mom who is also very well-traveled and never compromises on the things in life that matter to her. Like me, travel is her biggest passion! She told me about many amazing solo travel experiences as well as priceless journeys shared with her two kids on road trips. One of her most memorable family trips was an unplanned, ten day visit to Italy in her car. They left Switzerland without any bookings to their name, preferring to see where their journey took them each day. On one night, this meant an evening sleeping in the car; an experience her kids will no doubt remind her of for many years to come. She and I both believe that where there’s a will, there’s a way. Stay tuned...there’s much more to come! In the next episode I’ll be sharing a story of visiting the first podcast tower in Zurich, Switzerland.****本系列会将中英的版本分开录制，想要进行更深入的英语听力学习或训练，可以听伴随在中文版本的下一集。得到本集节目的中英文文本，预定环欧火车旅行的资讯和网站，当时的照片和影片甚至路线图，请关注公众微信IFLYCLUB，回复文字“环欧火车12”
