Effrosyni:

“This experience was so surreal! I would recommend it without a doubt! All the activities were amazing and so were the people that we met.”

Despoina:

“My participation in the  program route and stars was a unique and unforgettable experience. It gave me the opportunity to meet people from different countries and cultures, improve my language and social skills, and gain new knowledge. I created wonderful memories and became more independent, open minded, and confident through this experience. If you have the chance to join an Erasmus program, I would definitely recommend it. It’s a great opportunity to meet new people, discover different cultures, and grow as a person. It might feel a little scary at first, but it’s absolutely worth it.”

Eirini:

“I had the opportunity to participate in an Erasmus+ project in Finland with HYP as the leader of our group, and it was an experience I will remember forever. Beyond the breathtaking landscape and the unique beauty of nature, I feel deeply grateful for having the chance to travel to such a distant and special place. My team was amazing, and very quickly we all became one group. We exchanged ideas and experiences, had fun, played together, and through the activities of the project, we also explored more personal and inner topics. We took part in many different activities, such as kayaking, climbing, making jewelry from soapstone, hiking in nature, experiencing a traditional Finnish sauna, and even taking dips in the icy waters of the lake. We sat around the fire, sang, danced, and shared many beautiful moments together. Overall, it was a truly unique experience, filled with wonderful memories, new connections, and moments that helped me get to know both others and myself better.”

The project is co-funded by the European Union.
