A Day in Zurich, Switzerland

Here are a few photos from our day trip to Zurich, Switzerland while studying abroad with Middle Tennessee State University in May 2023.

The buildings were so close they seemed to brush shoulders

On our tour of the factory, we learned about growing cacao, the history of the chocolate-making process, and Lindt’s sustainability efforts in 2023.

At the end of the tour, we got to sample each of the truffle varieties.

For the rest of the day, we split into smaller groups and explored the city.
