Elina Kyasperova – How does the work in EU parliament goes

Oliver Robin Alt – How much there is for me yet to learn
Mari Põldma – How EU Parliament works. I had no idea about it.
Tarmo Murula – How the European parliament works
Hanna Kerstina Kartau – Talking to the local youngsters about their school-life.

Cerlyn Treumann – Yes, I have more knowledge about the elections to spread now.
Elina Kyasperova – Yes, I will vote in future
Jan Arnar Põldma – Yes, I’ll do a presentation in my school about this topic and youth exchange in general and i definitely continue applying to the projects of nyh
Oliver Robin Alt – Yes, taking part in different projects
Mari Põldma – In EU topics maybe no, but I want to go to more youth exchanges.
Tarmo Murula – Yes.
Hanna Kerstina Kartau – Not sure about the field of the project topic, but what I would definitely like to continue doing is attending projects like this.
Selman Erkan – Yes, of course. Voting is part of our life and encouraging people on that way is important too
Would you recommend it to your friends? I yes, why? If not, why not?
Villiam Põldma – I do, it will open a new window of possibilities for them.
Anna-Christi-Karita Aruksaar – I recommend these kind of projects to everyone. It is a great opportunity to grow, learn and have fun at the same time in a consentrated way. Also these kind of projects unite people with different backgrounds, culture and make us more tolerant and understanding of the different.
Cerlyn Treumann – No. Too many people from one country. If there were 5-6 people from each country and 6-7 countries it would’ve been way better.
Elina Kyasperova – Yes, because it gives you an opportunity to find friends, practice language and discuss topic and learn it in unusual way
Jan Arnar Põldma – Yes there are many reasons but one thing is for sure you’ll come back as a completely changed person: more matured more open and more confident in yourself. Plus it’s an unique opportunity to have so many people from different backgrounds interacting a sharing a piece of themselves with you
Oliver Robin Alt – Yes, tomorrow I will do a good of the project in my school because I enjoyed it that much
Mari Põldma – Yes. These kinds of projects are a great way to gain knowledge and grow personally.
Tarmo Murula – Yes. You learn many.
Hanna Kerstina Kartau – I definitely would, a youth exchange is a great opportunity to learn, travel and meet new people at the same time.
Selman Erkan – I would definitely recommend to my friends because you can actually learn and gain a lot from these projects so they should definitely join.
More comments or anything else you would like to share? You can add here in your own language, if you want!
Anna-Christi-Karita Aruksaar – In every project/ life experience there is something to learn that will grow us to be better and more knowledgeable.
