[Lucille]
It was my last day in switzerland. I roam around grindelwald and saw mountain trails. I tried the First Glider to the journey going to the summit.

A lot of tourist went to paraglide. I waited on the line for my turn. On the way to the Sphinx Observation Deck. I take pictures of myself and pose before my turn to ride the cable car.

It took minutes to reach the observation deck. A lot of people takes photo of the overlooking view.

The beauty of switzerland never fails to amaze me. I took my camera and capture the beauty of scenery.

From the mountains to the people enjoying the ski. It was a dream that I finally reached.

I bought some swiss chocolates, swiss army knife, swiss wine and music box.

After I purchase everything I needed, I head back to the hotel.

On my way back, I rode the Glacier Express. I bought a model SBB train.

After I put away the paint and paint brushes, I put the painting on easel.

I went out to eat lunch. A notify showed up to my phone.

'Lucille Photography accepted your request'

I scrolled on the account. I saw different pictures from other parts of europe and asia.
A new post showed up it was from the mountain of Switzerland I liked the post and left.

I went to a restaurant and went to buy paint in the market. I take paint and brushes with two canvases then pay. I rode the train to schaffhausen.

Theres a sense of sadness knowing I will leave the country later.I pack my bags once I arrived at the hotel then took a nap before leaving.

I needed to work back in Canada. I arrive at the airport 30 minutes later.

Its been a month since I got here in Switzerland.

Since I got home I am working back in the office.

I log in to my office account and started to edit the photos that I took in Switzerland.

"How's switzerland? I bet it was incredible like those in pictures." My manager walks up next to our cubicle.

"Lucian, M. Andreas Schneider demande le prix du portrait."(Lucian, Mr. Andreas Schneider is asking for the portrait price.) His secretary asked.

"dites-lui que c'est 4 000 francs."(tell him it is 4,000 francs.) I replied.

"il l'a payé via les services bancaires en ligne."(he paid it through online banking.) My secretary informed me.

I went to a school near where I live.

"Hallo, ich wollte mich für einen Kurs anmelden."(Hello, I wanted to enroll in an class.) I greeted the lady in front.

The registrar entertained me through their courses.

"Ich nehme an einem Malkurs teil."(I'll take some painting class.) I smiled after what I said.

Time, curious time
Gave me no compasses, gave me no signs
Were there clues I didn't see?
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?

A music played in the office.While I waited for my papers and to be enrolled.

I sat on the waiting chair next to other student.

"Lucille, are you sure that you will go to New York?" Her boss asked which she nod in reply.

I'm used to this environment where I am sent to different places and countries to take pictures of phenomenon, environment and destinations that will be published in magazines and online sites for tourist to see where the best places they can go in a country.

After I packed the camera bag with memory card, memory card reader, flash, lenses, camera strap, lens hood and photographic filter.

I take my luggage after and compiled my bags and camera on hand.

Another Country, Another work. I sigh after I sat down to drive my car to a different place once again.

I emailed my boss about the trip and right after I drive my way to New York. It will take 8 hours since The Hudson Valley route is where I follow through.

A call from the manager caught my attention while on a stop. "Bonjour, Lucille Monsieur Lambert tient à vous informer que notre tournage débutera à 5h du matin."(hello, Lucille Mister Lambert would like to let you know that our shoot will start at 5 am. ) Her manager let her know about the plan.

"Oui, merci de m'avoir fait part du planning je serai prêt et à l'heure pour le tournage."(Yes, Thank you for letting me know the schedule I will be ready and be on time for the shoot.) She quickly return.

3 hours have passed and she took a quick break on the road trip. She stops at a drive-thru and got some burger and drink .

"Lucian, I am very happy to tell you that your work has been chosen by the boards to be auction in a place in UK."

That lit up the eyes of the painter. All night since he learned that his artwork will be shown in public, he started working on several more paintings.

After he created his masterpiece, Lucian decided to wrap up his painting for the public viewing.

After some time the tiring and exiciting day ended for Lucian. The next morning, a man went to his place to take his luggage and painting.

The headed to the airport going to UK. I waited for my flight to be announced by the officers.

"Good afternoon passengers. This is the pre-boarding announcement for flight 89B to Rome. We are now inviting those passengers with small children, and any passengers requiring special assistance, to begin boarding at this time. Please have your boarding pass and identification ready. Regular boarding will begin in approximately ten minutes time. Thank you."

Time, wondrous time
Gave me the blues and then purple pink skies
And it's cool, baby, with me
And isn't it just so pretty to think
All along there was some
Invisible string
Tying you to me?
