The Lausanne Guide Contributors

Valentina

Events & Lifestyle

Valentina moved to Lausanne in 2016 after a work experience in Wales and quickly fell in love with this city and its views. She’s a Scientist at CHUV, involved in the development of new immunotherapies for cancer treatment.
In her spare time, she hikes, goes for long walks in Lavaux, and being Italian will never say no to a glass of wine with friends.

Vernon

Arts, Culture & Sport

As a discerning New Yorker, it is no surprise that Vernon would at least have to settle in Monocle’s Best Small City. An art dealer for the past  11 years, he is regularly out on the town checking vernissages, artist studios and of course the latest spots. Otherwise as an aspiring triathlete you can catch him for an espresso before hitting the roads and trails of the region.

Matt

Food, Drinks, & Culture

Matt is an Australian who jumped at the chance to live in the land of chocolate, mountains and on-time trains when his partner was offered a job in Switzerland. Two years on from a jetlagged stroll to Ouchy after 30 hours in transit from Sydney, he’s still discovering new things to love about Lausanne. During the week, Matt writes for a biotech startup. On the weekend he roams the streets in search of the best rosti in Vaud.
