Then Philippe goes to the Gruyère region: a very green area.There Philippe meets a cowboy (armailli) with his cow herd (100 cows), they are moving to the Alpine pastures (transhumance).Later some bearded men appear: there is a meeting of armaillis, they invite Philippe to eat fondue and sing "Le ranz des vaches", a traditional sing of the Armaillis.It's a brotherhood of men who love their earth and their traditions.Now Philippe is in Fribourg and takes the train to Berne: a lady explains that the Swiss people enjoy the nature, they are discreet, but also friendly; besides Switzerland is a land of dialogue and consensus.Later Philippe is in Emmental, the region which produces the famous cheese Emmental (with the holes inside).There Philippe meets a farmer who asked to a photographer to take picture of his cow and we see a photo shooting for the local newspaper.Then Philippe travels on the Montreux-Oberland train: with a pleasant passenger Philippe speak about money in Switzerland.Philippe returns to the lake of Geneva region (Lavaux and Lausanne) and then goes by train to the valley of Joux: there he will meet Marianne and Armand who are looking for tree barks and will prepare the famous "vacherin Mont d'or".
