“Many people will walk in and walk out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in

your heart”

With lots and lots expectations and sadness of not having our friends on the same campus, we

all started off on our trip to France for the summer program. We were 72 in all in which 21 students

were from EEE. The flight from Chennai to Mumbai and from Mumbai to Paris was fun as we were

seated with our friends. It was from the Paris Charles De Gaulle airport did our real experience start.

The students going to Paris, Lille and Nantes campus departed from the airport while we were left

there as we had to catch our next flight to Toulouse. To Toulouse, we were 18 students with 6 of us

from EEE with Mrs. Josephine who was our staff in-charge. It was a moment when thousands and

thousands of thoughts and questions filled our minds. I, personally, was very excited to reach

Toulouse to meet Adelaide, the French girl whom I hosted during my 3rd semester. The life in

Toulouse was something that will always remain fresh in our memory lane. Sleepovers, group

cooking, making new friends who became an integral part of our lives, gossips, the games made our

stay in the ICAM hostel a wonderful one. The college was equally fun. Having French classes in the

morning, I still remember us running along the pavement to reach the classes on time. Ms. Catherine

and Ms. Yang were our French tutors and they made our classes the best by involving us in various

activities. One of it was making a typical French food - ‘The oeuf mimosa’.


2


In the afternoon, we had the project hours during which we were guided by the staff and the students

of ICAM. Our project was to make an “M & M Sorting Machines” that sorts the M & M chocolates

according to its color and places them in different glasses. For this project, we learned a new

software ‘Catia’ that is used to design the parts. The designed parts were realized using a 3D printer

and the control system of the device was programmed using an Arduino. Thus, this project helped us

gain knowledge in multiple disciplines. Plus, it was fun to watch our projects working.

The other fun parts of the trip were the weekends. We had a weekend to stay with a French

family and I got to stay with Adelaide and her family for two days and I would say that those two

days were the best days that I have spent in France. Another one was the autonomous weekend

wherein we students in groups were asked to go on our own with one or two French students to

someplace. This weekend was even more interesting. The other weekend we had a visit to Lourdes.

The two best days that we enjoyed the most were the days of the Indian show and the Indian

lunch. For the Indian show, we practiced several cultural events that included dances, songs and a

mime on Patriotism. We worked a lot for these practicing every evening till almost 12 at night and

thanks to our hard work, everyone was very much impressed by our performances and congratulated

us. Indian lunch was something that brought out the best in us. None of us knew that we could cook

so good before that eventful day. Everyone one of us made individual cooking and presented almost

15 dishes varying from Briyani to Gobi fry to Custard and Rasamalai. The French staff and students

liked our cooking so well that most of them came for a round 2 and we were on cloud nine because

of this. On the final day, we had a farewell were every Indian student dressed in a traditional outfit

with girls adorning themselves in sarees and boys in dhothis.

The saddest part was us leaving to Paris from Toulouse, the place which became a home to us.

Though a part of us was happy that we are going to visit the City of love, Paris, we were still sad as

we would never get back the moments were we played hide and seek, roamed freely, woke up each

other in the mornings, cooked together, sang songs and danced in groups, celebrated our birthdays

together and the memories would go on endlessly. Moreover, we all would miss Ajay anna, who has

become a brother for every one of us. With tears, we left Toulouse.

Reaching Paris our spirits were lifted once again. We went sightseeing to Eiffel tower and

Louvre museum, which still remains a dream for many. Though we had a few of our friends back in

Paris we were with our new friends from Toulouse as we have bonded as a family and this bond is

something that is special to every one of us. Having spent two days in Paris every one of us from all

the four campuses met in the Paris CDG airport to depart to India.

The summer program in France was an eyeopener to every one of us. Most of us had been

away from the parents for the first time. Whenever one felt homesick the others were there to make

them feel at home and bring the smile back on our faces. Though this program helped us to learn

many multidisciplinary skills technically, it mostly made us look at life from a different perspective.

I personally would thank the college for giving me such an opportunity as this program molded me

in many ways and I got the friends who are always there for me and would never ditch me in any

situation. Moreover, this program helped me in sharpening my skills with the technical aspects too.

We were taken in a bus from the airport to ICAM PARIS. One of the Most beautiful Campus with a

Canal nearby.

College Life In ICAM-Paris was quite different. We spent most of our time in the Lab than Our

classrooms. Our Class Hours were from 8:30 to 5. We had Lunch For 2 hours. Our Summer Project

was To Design and manufacture A PLOT CLOCK. We learned many new things. Remy Sir Was

Our Coordinator. He was such A Sweet Person Who tolerated All Our Misbehaving. Every day Was

an Adventure. ¾

The First Week In France Was So Amazing. The Weather was Cool and Pleasant. We Visited Sacrè-

Cœur Basilica and other places Surrounding it On Sunday.

Weekend with the French Family was such An Unforgettable Experience. I had to travel for 12 hrs.

in Bus with my friend to Reach Lyon A place 500 Km from Paris. Though we knew little French we

managed to board the correct train and bus and Reached Lyon safely. The Family was So caring and

so Sweet. The French Food was amazing. We tasted different dishes Like Ratatouille, Crepe, Pork,

Beef. Lyon was another Beautiful Place with many Cathedrals, River Seine, Palace and Rock

Climbing.

Our Day Starts by Getting Up Late and Rushing to Class before 8:30. Cooking Lunch and dinner.

Going to Carrefour a Supermarket nearby was our weekly routine.

Paris Is such A Beautiful City. One can never leave Paris without visiting The Eiffel Tower. It has

many Must Visit places Like Notre-Dame, Catacombs, Luxembourg Gardens, Versailles Palace and

Many Cathedrals.

The INDIAN SHOW was quite Unexpected. With Our little Talent and within a day of practice We

did a Fantastic Job. From Missing those steps to Lungi Dance and Mixing the lyrics Of songs We

had a Fun filled day.

Another Unforgettable Event was The INDIAN COOKING. Though we were not Master Chefs we

made Variety Of Dishes. New recipes were Found - Biryani come Bisibelebath!! We cooked for

almost 3 Hours.

Unexpected Friendships Are The Best Ones. Though none of us knew Each other Before This Paris

trip We found That Sense of Belonging in each other.

We Made Some Memories That Will Last For A Lifetime

Nantes 2017

It’s a great pleasure in sharing the memories of Nantes. We were a group of 18 students from all

departments in which (Aiswariya, Devadass, Nirmala and Joshni) from the EEE department,

accompanied by Ms.Anitha from IT department. It was a great experience for us. Firstly, we reached

Paris at 8 am and waited for a long time for the train meanwhile we got know about the students

from other departments. After the lousy journey we reached Nantes at 9pm. We took rest that night,

as it was a weekend, we went to church the next day, to start our program with a prayer. In the

following days, we had French classes and project classes. We designed the blades for the wind

turbine using 3D printer and determined the wind speed using Bluetooth module connected to

Arduino. The French classes were very interesting as our French teacher made us to play games and

we were excited because the rule was to play in French. We played games like the treasure hunt,

cluedo (an investigation game), Pictionary. Secondly, visits to Centre of the city was fascinating and

we were guided by Mr.Ronnon and Madame Genevieve who were very friendly and persuaded us in

all our works. Moreover, for the French family weekend, (Nirmala and Joshni) we went to same

family.


2


They were very affectionate to us and they took us to the beach and we spent a whole day out. On

Sunday, they took us to their friend’s house, and it was really a quality time, for us to know about the

French culture. All of the family members were kind and awesome.

Furthermore, the Indian dinner cooked by us, delighted the French people. For the Indian show, all

the 18 of us danced together and amused the French people. Desy Arwin Stephen, who is our senior

from mechanical background accompanied us for the whole month as he was doing his masters at

that time. Calvin, who is our senior from the same department came to see us and spent few days

with us and cheered us. Finally, Fête de la musique, which is a music festival in the whole country,

we enjoyed the music by dancing on the road. We also went for adventurous sports which includes

zip line travel and Tarzan jumps from tree to tree. Lastly, we went to Paris and visited the Eiffel

tower, Sacred heart church. We found some Indian shops where we had Biriyani after a long time.

After the exhausting day, we shared our wonderful memories of the whole program and then went to

Paris airport,(CDG) and took our flights.

LILLE 2017

France 2017, is something we all dreamt of when we hosted the French students . It

came to light on June 9th 2017. With all excitement we reached the P aris airport and split into 4

groups - Lille, Paris, Nante, Toulouse for the next one month It took us 1 hour by train to reach Lille

We had everyday classes for French and projects.


2


Talking about the classes it was pretty much different and interactive and we learnt a lot of tools and

dealt with using the 3D printer and successfully completed the project along with the support and

guidance provided by our staff Mr.Arul Suju sir.

Apart from the projects we loved to visit all monuments and places in France and we the students

from Lille were lucky to visit the neighboring place, Belgium as well!The best part of the trip was

the Indian dinner and the Indian show, we put in hard work in the given short span of time and made

it appreciable.

We would like to thank the LICET management for giving us such an opportunity to gain an international exposure and a lifetime experience.
