Afloat at the Fribourg carnival

Fribourg is celebrating its 40th carnival, and the old town is a riot of colour and music as the festivities continue. The all male 'Carnavaleux' team has been taking part for the past 7 years and they're really pushing the boat – or rather the bus – out this year with their devil theme. The 13 team-members may be long in the tooth but they sure know how to party. (Julie Hunt, swissinfo)

I have a wealth of experience as a journalist working in Switzerland and enjoy producing videos, articles and podcasts on a range of subjects, recently focused mainly on politics and the environment. Born in the UK, I studied law at Nottingham University, then went on to attend the first-ever post-graduate radio journalism college in London. After working as a radio journalist in the UK and then Switzerland from 1984 to 1995, I returned to the UK to complete a post-graduate diploma in film at Bournemouth Film School. I have been working as a video journalist ever since.
