This year, the free flow takes us for a 2-day retreat at xxx .
The purpose for the 'free flow' is for mentors and students to spend time together in an alternative mode than the usual school setting.
In a different setting and with different tools, they discuss together interests and topics ranging from the upcoming thesis to life in general.
This is also a special exchange moment for bonding.

Dinner on 10.10 from 18.00
