All for one, one for all!
Danai, GreeceI had plenty of questions and the answer was ERASMUS+.
My Erasmus+ journey began in May of 2022. One boring day at my university, I had a conversation with one of my classmates about how much we both enjoy traveling, but we do not have the budget. A few days later, he entered the class with luggage ready to go to Italy, as he explained to us. I had plenty of questions and the answer was ERASMUS+. It all just started to travel for free, but after my 1st participation, I realized it was more than that...I had the opportunity to make new friends with different backgrounds and cultures from all over the world, develop some skills I did not know I needed to improve, practice my English speaking and writing, and learn about different cultures. All at the same time!
You may understand that after my ‘discovery’, I got addicted to such mobilities. Currently, I am a volunteer in an NGO and a developing Youth Trainer. One of my goals is to make and facilitate my project. Erasmus+ and other European Union initiatives altered my life and helped me grow into a better version of myself!
One of my favorite mobilities was this summer, in August. I participated in a Youth Exchange about human rights in Samsun, Turkey. It was an amazing and team-bonding experience! We had the opportunity to develop multiple soft skills (for example comprehension, communication, etc.) while using Non-Formal Learning and discussing the topic. It was a unique trip, as we watched presentations from different cultures and also presented ours. My favorite activity was when we discussed for each participating country the violations of human rights and how to eliminate them.
…and as the name of the project is, "All for one, one for all"!
