3rd day in Genève

On Wednesday morning we had to get up very early because we had to be at school at 7:30 to travel to Lausanne to the Essential Tech Laboratory at EPFL.

When we arrived we had an introduction of the EPFL and a discussion on the essential tech  film previously seen at school. After that the students were separated in 4 groups to make 4 practical experiences organized by members of the essential tech laboratory. The activities were about different aspects of the scientific study: training, infrastructures, financial resources and climate.

After the activities we went to Cailler Chocolate Factory in Gruyere. It was amazing, we tried so many different chocolates that i can remember.
