Would you recommend this experience to your friends? If yes, why? If no, why not?
Elina Varest – Yes, because I don’t know where else you can get so much knowledge in such a short amount of time.
Nataliia Sidenko – YES! It was a really valuable experience of understanding how individual processes and the project in general take place, after which you can gain the necessary experience and skills and friendships with people from different European countries.
Ksenija Akimova – Definitely! I keep trying to share the information about Erasmus+ with as many people as possible.
Kristiina Kivimäe – Yes. During the project I learned a lot about topic, about different cultures and about myself.
