The Erasmus + Project is a great opportunity to learn about the life.
The students must discover the world. Indeed, we often focus on books, or homework and exams. We forget that everything around us is important. And what happens beyond our borders too.
At first, I had some doubts: I didn’t know whether to sign up the form. Now I don’t regret it at all. It was the best decision! I chose Budapest (Hungary) because I thought it would be very different from Valencia.
My partner came first, and I had to be a good host. I helped him adjust to our way of life. Everything was different for him: language, schedules, customs, etc. But we managed to understand each other, and he had a good time in Valencia.
Then, I travelled to Budapest. So, I had to be flexible too, and I understood that it is not easy. But it is an exciting challenge. Besides the trip, the excursions and visiting a new country, this experience has enriched me as a person and as a European citizen.
We should all try to learn about other cultures. In this way we would be more tolerant and understanding. The world is not the personal vision we have of it. The world is the place where millions of people feel, study, work, cry, laugh, etc. We are obliged to understand each other and live together in peace. We must open our minds to diversity.
Erasmus+ has taught me all this and much more.
