PROJECT REPORTS

After completing my university education in my home country, I decided to take some time to experience a different culture, develop myself, and create meaningful memories.

I had never thought about participating in an ESC project before I saw the volunteering opportunity at the State Parliament of Bremen.

From the first day, I felt the atmosphere of energy, friendliness, and openness

Ich werde versuchen dieses eine Jahr, das ich erlebt habe so umfassend und aufrichtig wie möglich zu beschreiben.
