Alexandra’s first steps in Erasmus+

Thinking back to the first steps on the path of Erasmus+

My first experience with the Erasmus + programme was at the end of high school when I had the opportunity to go on my first youth exchange with some classmates. I liked it so much that I decided to become a volunteer at an association close to where I lived and that’s how my Erasmus+ journey started. Along the way, I had the opportunity to participate in several youth exchanges which helped my development. During these projects, I improved my English language skills, learned to learn and made friends. I also had the chance to discover different cultures and learn that people are different and differences are something that unites us. I strongly believe that for a teenager the Erasmus + programme is a must try and it can be a good opportunity to discover more about yourself and expand your network.
