Erasmus experiences +. From September 23 to 30, María, Jian Ye, Rubén, Sara and Soufyane participated with Mundus in the Erasmus + "Training for Professional Career Counseling" training course in Slovakia, together with young people from Bulgaria, Italy, Romania, Hungary and Slovakia.

We leave you a piece of your experience in text and photos told by its protagonists. Keep reading!

A few weeks ago we have returned to our normal lives in which we are studying, working or looking for work and even not doing any of the things, because things do not go as planned.

Our adventure began by gathering the 5 people that formed the Spanish team (Sara, María, Jian, Soufyane and Rubén). Some of us met at the airport, others in Bratislava and others in Valaska (the city where the Training Course took place).

The expectations for this Training Course in Slovakia were quite high, since the theme of "Career Counseling" is quite complex. The course may not be good in the subject, but we can say without a doubt that we had a great time, thanks especially to the other participants of the course (Slovakia, Bulgaria, Romania, Italy, Spain and Hungary).

The course was made up of sessions in the morning, in the afternoon and lots of breaks in between. One of our great moments was lunch and dinner where the Slovak cooks had prepared a different dish for us every day. The cooks were very funny since they spoke to us in Slovak and we didn't understand anything, we answered in Spanish, English or any other language.

Banská Bystrica is one of the most important cities in Slovakia. We had the opportunity to visit it a whole day, where we had the opportunity to see, talk and know how a training center for Roma people works.

I think we could all learn something new from each other, we leave with the feeling of these 9 days we have known little. We encourage everyone who can participate in these incredible projects. We will not forget those green landscapes, with an exuberant amount of trees and in which you could enjoy a pure and clean air of the mountains.

We thank Asociación Mundus and Association of Young Roma for giving us this opportunity.
