The story begins

I was, and I am still just a regular university student, but I have something in my genes that tells me to always move forward and grab the opportunity. I'm pretty sure I'm not alone with this, but every story is different, and this is my story.

After graduating from high school, I needed time to think about my future, to get to know myself better, and to decide to go to university or what to do. I took a year off and went to Finland to be a babysitter for 7 months. It was a very eye-opening period in my life. Before moving there, I was afraid to speak a different language, afraid to move out of my comfort zone and afraid of a different life.

After I've returned to my country, I went to South Korea with my sister for a month just to travel and enjoy the time, and it was also a huge experience for me, especially because Korea was always my dream, and I'm so grateful for it.

In the upcoming years, I started the university in Budapest, but I had this urge in me, what I couldn't satisfy with my normal life. What I did was that I joined the Erasmus Student Network (shortly ESN), and I became a mentor for the international students, so even if I was at home, I had an international environment around me. Later on, I moved one step forward, and I applied to be the PR Coordinator in ESN. I became a full-time volunteer, and it surely made my university semesters better. I organized a trip to Venice and a trip to Croatia during the semester, and it was all free for me, just needed to take some pocket money, but that's all. Those were amazing times next to a hard semester in school.

And then it was time. I heard a lot from others how Erasmus changed their life, and it's an unforgettable experience, so I grabbed the opportunity and went with the flow. It was a rough application procedure but I got the email that I can go to Porto for Erasmus. 

That's where my story begins now!
