The project was awesome.It was my first time participating in an erasmus plus programme but i like it very much. I liked also the connections that we had with the other countries participants and the good co operation that we made in all activities that the project has. I make friends from different European countries and now whenever i visit them i have new friends to guide me.

My experience in this program is one of the best moments I've had in my life. Contact with people from different countries is a unique experience to open our horizons and come together with new cultures and civilization. I think that was the best part. It's an opportunity no one should miss.

Vasiliki, 24 y.o Greek participant

Participating in this kind of Erasmus+ project is a unique opportunity to learn, have meaningful conversations, and live experiences that will have a strong impact on your perspective. Personally, being friends and discussing with people from all over Europe has given me a feeling of unity and a whole new way of thinking about people in general.

Nikos, 23 y.o. Greek participant

I had such an amazing experience in Felgueiras. I met new interesting people and got new knowledge through many workshops. I would suggest that everyone tries this at least once in their lifetime because it helps you become more open minded and make special memories with people from other countries. I am looking forward to my next project!

My participation in the EKO European program was an incredibly enriching experience. I had the opportunity to engage in a variety of activities that not only expanded my knowledge but also allowed me to interact with young people from different cultures and backgrounds. The program was excellently organized, with a perfect balance between educational sessions and social activities, ensuring that we learned and had fun simultaneously. From the warm hospitality to the engaging discussions, everything contributed to making this an unforgettable journey. I would highly recommend this experience to any young person looking to broaden their horizons and grow both personally and professionally.

I loved this program! Banyuls-sur-Mer is a beautiful town and I’m really happy I got the chance to get to know it. Exploring it with my Greek, French and Portuguese friends was an amazing experience. This whole trilateral exchange was unforgettable, and I will keep every moment and person in my heart for a long long time.

Iro, 26 y.o Greek young participant

My experience from the program recover your power in Spain was amazing. We had a lot of fun we met a lot of interesting people and we disconnected from our everyday routines. We learn to appreciate more the nature and find calmness in the nowadays chaos. It was one of the best experiences I had in my life so I encourage everyone to try it.

I had an amazing experience participating in the program in the mountains of Spain. It was truly a unique program where all the participants connected effortlessly, creating a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The organizers were cheerful and genuinely supportive, always ready to help and make sure we had the best experience. We engaged in a variety of interesting activities that kept things exciting and fresh every day. The highlight for me was definitely the hiking—it was incredible to explore such a beautiful mountain and take in the breathtaking scenery. It was an experience that left me with lasting memories and a deep appreciation for nature.

My youth exchange experience with EKO was quite good! Our team leader was really helpful and by my side on a difficulty i had to deal with. The project I participated was about refugees and it was a great first taste of this very interesting topic. All the participants became my new friends and we are already planning our next application!
