IAESTE Wellness Weekend

October 23-24, 2009

Hello Trainees from all around the world!

To really be able to enjoy a day of wellness, you have to deserve it by a night hike. After a gorgeous Hike at nighttime and a good breakfast we are ready to enjoy a day of wellness in the 'Swiss Holiday Park' with Sauna, baths and a "soap and brush massage"

We will end the Weekend with a good dinner in Brunnen.
