Welcome to MEMO 2022

After 10 years, we are pleased to once again host the MEMO in Switzerland. We are happy to invite you all to Bern and show you what Switzerland has to offer.

You will stay at Hostel 77, which used to accommodate the staff of the Zieglerspital, a former hospital. Here you can play ping-pong, billiards, or table football with your old and new friends. After the exams you can be active on the sports field and during the excursion you will have the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful landscape of Switzerland and try various fun activities.

We are looking forward to meeting you all.

Tim, Florian, Jana and Nicole
