ESTLAT Volunteer Diaries Part 5 〰️ Last week, alongside a group of pupils from Estonia and Latvia as a part of their energy education study trip, we visited the Riga Motor Museum to learn about the evolution of #greenenergy - followed by a trip to the local waste site where we were shown their system of growing fruit and vegetables using biogas (not a bad way to get ready for #EUGreenWeek ♻️). Next, we stopped by the Latvian Academy of Sciencesand took in the breath-taking panoramic view of Riga. On the weekend, we stopped by NOASS gallery as a part of Riga #MuseumNight. Can't believe we only have a month left in Riga! Let us know your favourite parts of Riga and we'll try to pay them a visit in our last month here :) #InterregVolunteerYouth - J & G // Interreg Volunteer Youth - IVY
