''They are tireless, because they are always looking for a place where they can earn the most money,'' says Leresche. ''Then they get chased away and try their luck elsewhere, again and again".
A freelance photojournalist based in Lausanne, Leresche immersed himself in the lives of the Roma who were begging in Lausanne between 2009 and 2015, before the practice was banned. He slept outside alongside them, accompanied them when they went begging, and made multiple trips to Romania. His work, entitled "Roma: The tireless quest for paradise", is the result.
