Bonjour! Meet Carol, MFA’s hiking enthusiast currently posted to Geneva, Switzerland.

As Attaché (Admin and Consular), she helps with tasks like protocol and consular visits. The learning curve is steep, and it would be difficult to cope if not for her colleagues.

Hiking takes her mind off things and helps her focus on the tranquillity of the moment. At the end of each hike, Carol snaps pictures of the promised view and leaves with a sense of accomplishment. Her new hobby has taught her to enjoy her own company, and spending time outdoors exploring nature improves her mood immensely.

"I hope more of such events can be organised and that officers can encourage one another to participate."
