I am off this morn to the Swiss village of Les Diablerets, for my third round of teaching in a winter school organised there yearly by CUSO (Conférence universitaire de Suisse occidentale). And hopefully partake of some skiing opportunities (even though my attempt at hiring an ice climbing guide failed!). This was the case in 2003 and 2017.
