Spanish Diary in Italy


Mondey, 17th May 2021

On the first day, we got to know the town of Gallarete from our Italian partner. We also got to know the facilities and workshops where our partner has been manufacturing his pneumatic Go-Kart.

These are the videos that they explained to us and the Quitzs that we made to consolidate what we learned:
