A Journey of Growth, Friendship, and Victory
Anastasia Kremmastou, Cyprus, Age 29The greatest skills we gained were the bonds we formed and the memories we created.
Participating in the "Hack for Skills" initiative was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Joining forces with 40 young minds from Cyprus and Malta, we set out to create innovative solutions that could shape professional skills for the future.
Our project, "SkillZard," was the result of countless hours of brainstorming, collaboration, and determination. Winning first place was an incredible achievement, but it wasn’t the prize that made this journey unforgettable.
The true highlight was the people I met along the way. We started as strangers but quickly became friends, sharing ideas, laughter, and dreams. The trip to Malta was another magical chapter of this story, filled with exploration, cultural exchange, and unforgettable moments.
Looking back, I realize that the most valuable skills I gained weren’t just professional—they were personal. Teamwork, resilience, and the joy of connecting with inspiring individuals will stay with me forever. This experience was more than a competition—it was a journey of growth and celebration.
"SkillZard" may have won the competition, but it was the friendships and memories we created that made us all winners.
*The "Hack for Skills" was an initiative under Erasmus+ (TCA) as part of the European Year of Skills. It was organized by the National Agencies and other stakeholders from Cyprus and Malta, promoting skill development and innovation.
