“I met many new people from different countries and I actually made a lot of new friends. Everyone was very open, friendly and ready to talk to, so it was easy to connect. During the sessions, I learned the main steps of preparing and leading a workshop. I understood how to communicate with young people, how to keep their attention. I also learned how to work in a team and how important it is to listen to others. The activities helped me to feel more confident and to express my ideas without fear.”

“There are no words that can describe an experience such as this youth exchange. As a young high schooler, going on her first exchange, I was overwhelmed with a little bit of fear, but a lot of joy.

But most importantly, this exchange let me create memories that will never be forgotten.”
