Leysin Switzerland is where it all began for Ken and Lori back in the early 70's.  They both fell in love with Leysin Switzerland a small village not far from Lausanne above the Rhone River.  It was the home of "Club Vagabond" which was started in the 60's as a climbing club.  Many of the top climbers in the World came through "The Vag" at one time or another.  Club Vagabond was a great spot to meet fellow travellers from around the world, to exchange stories, make friends and recharge the batteries before the next adventure. 
Swiss Television did a documentary on Club Vagabond  number of years ago, and you can click here to see it.
