and I am in the 11th grade at "Ion Barbu" high school.

Here, I dive into the world of computer science, hoping to continue in this branch later in my life. I am always eager to

discover new things, such as how the atmosphere will be in the Erasmus+ project.

I find it fascinating learning about other people and explore their perspectives.

With this opportunity, I will enhance my communication skills, which are essential for my future career, in my opinion. Most importantly, I am confident that this experience will help me become not only a better student but also a more open-minded and adaptable individual.

I am looking forward to this journey with excitement and curiosity. I’m sure the experience within the Erasmus+ project will be full of unforgettable memories.

Most of my time is dedicated to academic preparation, yet I also value teamwork and creative collaboration. In the past, I have been involved in activities such as teambuilding projects and an initiative similar to HoltIS, where I had the chance to contribute ideas, work with others, and improve my organizational skills. These experiences taught me the importance of cooperation, adaptability, and leadership in achieving common goals.

I am very excited to participate in the Erasmus project, as I see it as a unique opportunity to grow, to exchange ideas, and to gain new perspectives on both education and culture. I am motivated to bring my dedication, enthusiasm, and openness to every activity, while also learning from the experiences of others.

I look forward to what Erasmus has to offer and to being part of an inspiring international community.

I have already been involved in volunteering, for example at Proedus, where I had the chance to learn responsibility and teamwork. At the same time, during high school I also have a small job to support some of my personal needs, so I try to balance school, work, and personal life. Besides my academic interests, I am an animal lover, especially fond of cats.🐈

I want to experience how teaching and learning are organized in other countries and to see the differences between the Romanian system and others. Since I want to become a teacher in the future, this opportunity would help me improve my perspective, gain new ideas, and maybe even decide if I want to pursue my career in Romania or abroad. Erasmus would not only help me grow professionally, but it would also allow me to discover new cultures, meet new people, and travel to places I have never been before.

For me, Erasmus means more than just an exchange – it is a chance to develop, to learn from different environments, and to get closer to achieving my dream. I am eager to embrace this opportunity and I truly hope to be selected to join this wonderful experience.🙏

Erasmus represents an incredible chance to grow both academically and personally.

I want to gain international experience and broaden my cultural horizons.

My academic focus lies in sociology, education, and community development.

Through Erasmus, I aim to exchange ideas with students from diverse backgrounds.

It is also a way to improve my language and communication skills.

Studying abroad will help me adapt to new environments and teaching styles.

I hope to participate in collaborative projects with international peers.

This program will strengthen my research and analytical abilities.

I wish to contribute positively to the host community during my stay.

Erasmus offers a unique perspective on social science in a European context.

It will also allow me to build a global academic and professional network.

I believe this journey will shape my future career and personal growth.

My goal is to return with valuable knowledge and share it at home.

Erasmus is not just a program — it is a life-changing adventure.

I have a B1 preliminary certificate from Cambridge and I am preparing to take the exam for B2. If I get accepted into the Erasmus+ project, I will deepen my knowledge of the English language by talking to people other than my countrymen. The Erasmus+ project is fascinating and is the biggest of its kind. The opportunity to participate in one of its many activities would be incredible. The Erasmus+ project would provide me many opportunities when it comes to the job market as well as opportunities to make new friends from which i can learn even more about the people of that respective country.

The path forward promises to be an exciting journey filled with unforgettable memories, and I will welcome it with open arms.

My name is Maria-Angela Ciofîcă, I live in Romania, Bucharest, specifically district 5. I'm currently studying at "Ion Barbu theoretical high school" in 9th grade. Here I'm learning all about science-based subjects such as biology, chemistry and physics.

I consider myself a friendly person since I love making new friends. I'm eager to discuss different topics and opinions. I think that communication is more than a transfer of information. It's more like building a bridge alongside the person you're talking with. Not sharing just facts, but also feelings, emotions and thoughts. Communication goes beyond words, tone, pauses, body language and even silence carry a meaning.

I've been involved in volunteering before, either at school or at a camp, especially this summer.

During this time I've learned all sorts of stuff such as empathy, patience but also confidence. I truly think it taught me more about the world, other people and myself.

I'd like to welcome the Erasmus+ experience into my life because it represents an opportunity for growth, connection, and discovery. Through this program, I can expand my horizons by experiencing new cultures, learning different perspectives, and developing skills that go beyond the classroom. Erasmus+ is not only about education and travel, but also about building relationships, strengthening empathy, and preparing ourselves for the future. By taking part, I hope to challenge myself, step out of my comfort zone, create memories and gain knowledge that will shape both my personal and professional future.

In addition to being sociable, I am also an energetic person who enjoys spending time playing sports. For example, I played handball for four years.

My favorite school subjects are History and English. I'm interested in history because I enjoy learning about the culture of my own country and others. English also interests me because it is one of the most spoken languages in the world.

Looking ahead, I would like to study at a university abroad, which is why I think the Erasmus+ experience is a great opportunity. While participating in this project, I hope to make new friends even from other countries, learn how to become a leader, and develop my public speaking skills.

I think this project would be a good fit for me, considering my academic achievements as well. I have a Cambridge B1 certificate. I participated in an Erasmus+ project from 2022 to 2024 called "Let's get to know our traditions" partnering with the Chernivtsi Lyceum No. 11 "Prestyzh" from Ukraine. During this project, we held several Zoom calls with the students from that school, which included presentations and speeches about our country and traditions. In 6th grade, I participated in a project from the "Save the children" association called "Schools without bullying" and I became the ambassador of antibullying in my class.

I look forward to this experience! 🥰

I have always loved participating in extracurricular activities, as they provided me with the opportunity to grow and evolve both personally and academically. Over the years, I have gained valuable experience working in teams, learning how to collaborate effectively, share ideas, and contribute to achieving common goals.

One of my passions is photography. Since I was little, I have loved capturing moments through pictures—especially with my loved ones. Photography allows me to express my creativity and preserve memories in a unique way.

I would also like to welcome an Erasmus+ project into my life because I truly believe it is a life-changing experience. Being part of such a project would allow me to be surrounded by hardworking and inspiring people, from whom I can learn and with whom I can share knowledge, ideas, and values.

What makes this project even more meaningful to me is the chance to step outside my comfort zone and discover new cultures, perspectives, and ways of thinking. I believe that personal growth comes when we challenge ourselves, and Erasmus+ is the perfect setting to do so.

Hello!My name is Vasile Mara Georgiana and I am a student at “Ion Barbu” Theoretical High School in Bucharest, Sector 5. I study in the Social Sciences profile, which has helped me develop critical thinking, communication skills, and a better understanding of society. I am an active and motivated student who has taken part in many extracurricular activities, such as volunteering projects, cultural events, and school initiatives. These experiences have taught me responsibility, teamwork, and how to adapt to new and unexpected situations.

I consider myself an open-minded and flexible person, always ready to face challenges and to learn from others. I enjoy working with people, sharing ideas, and collaborating in order to reach common goals. At the same time, I am hardworking and organized, qualities that help me balance both my studies and my extracurricular involvement.

I am very interested in participating in the Erasmus program because I see it as a unique opportunity for growth, both personally and academically. By studying and working together with students from other European countries, I can discover new cultures, improve my language skills, and gain a more international perspective on education.

I believe Erasmus will allow me to step out of my comfort zone, to challenge myself, and to learn how to adapt in a multicultural environment. I also see this experience as a way to prepare for my future, since I would like to continue my studies abroad and develop a career where international communication and collaboration are important.

For me, Erasmus is not only about studying in another country, but also about building connections, sharing experiences, and contributing to a community of young people who want to make a difference. I am motivated to represent my school and my country with responsibility, while also learning from others and becoming a better version of myself.

,how they evolve and how they think. Recently, I’ve also discovered economics, which helped me understand how societies works in practice. I consider myself to be an open-minded person, who is always interested in new adventures and projects. My hobbies also include traveling and reading.

Joining Erasmus+ would be an incredible opportunity for me. I would love to meet new people from all around Europe, share experiences, and learn from different cultures. I think it would help me grow as a person by pushing me out of my comfort zone, improving my social and communication skills. Moreover , I’d like to take part in something that builds connections and creates memories from highschool that last a lifetime.

years old student at "Ion Barbu" Highschool, and I have always enjoyed writing, of any kind, from poems to

short stories, fiction to non-fiction.

I'm especially passionate about

psychology, specifically human

typologies and personalities,

philosophy, as well as debating

morality and ethics.

I want to be able

to share my observations and

research about society as wel as the

inner mind, two of my favourite

topics, and hopefully encourage

people to keep amd open mind and

realise that learning can come from

anywhere, be it television, books or

our day to day life, even moments we

may find insignificant at first.

Besides music and the extracurricular activities connected to it, I also love traveling. Most of the money I earn from my part-time job goes into saving for trips, since traveling feels like one of the best ways to grow and invest in myself.

I would be excited to welcome an Erasmus+ experience into my life, because I believe meeting new people and discovering different cultures would be extremely valuable. Since I want to work in the music industry, a field that’s global by nature, it feels important to connect with the world. On a personal level, I’m also curious about finding out where I might want to live in the future, and which cultures resonate most with how I want to shape my life.

I’d describe myself as easygoing, and I really enjoy working in teams. I think Erasmus+ would be an amazing opportunity to strengthen that quality while also supporting others in reaching their own goals. I naturally look for deep conversations and tend to help people open up quickly, so I also hope that through this experience, I can help the people I meet better understand themselves too.

Considering all this, I can say that I'm really excited for this experience and look forward to it!

I am passionate about international relations, cultural exchange and history. I believe that by learning and participating in activities in a multi-cultural environment I can develop the skills needed for my future profession.

I have also been involved in the European Parliament Ambassador School Programme (EPAS) where I learned more about the European Union, democracy and being an active citizen. Here I learned I am great at teamwork, negociating and cooperation .

Another one of my passions is baking as I am an avid sweets fan. Whenever I have a stressful day, baking is one of the things that calms me.

I am excited to welcome the Erasmus+ project into my life as it is a chance for me to further my knowledge, create valuable global connections and gain countless new skills . The opportunity to participate in this programme , to study and live in another country, is a step in the path to achieving my dream of becoming a diplomat.

I want to be part of the Erasmus program because of the astonishing things I heard of it and I believe it offers a unique opportunity to grow both academically and personally and this is my main goal at the moment . By studying and living in a different country, I will be able to experience new perspectives, develop intercultural awareness, and help me communicate more efficiently . These skills are necessary not only for my future career but also for becoming a more open minded and globally engaged individual.

Through Erasmus, I hope to improve my language skills, gain confidence in communicating across cultures, and learn from diverse educational techniques . I am also excited about the chance to share my own culture with others, contribute actively to the international community, and build lasting friendships and connections with people from all over Europe.

EPAS is a program that allows you to learn about the European Union in numerous fun ways, develop teamwork skills, which is one of the most important things about it, and even visit countries within the European Union. Along the way, it has also given me lots of knowledge that I’ll forever be grateful to have had the chance to accumulate. In 2024, I’ve visited Brussels with EPAS, and it was one of the most beautiful experiences I’ve been through.

I am a person that appreciates the environment that she’s in very much, which is why I always try and make it enjoyable for myself in order to stay productive. I enjoy creativity, which is why I’ve always been interested in arts. I took dance classes as soon as i started my first years of school, joined theater classes, and am currently taking vocal classes.

In the future, although I am not sure yet, I’d like to study at Faculty of Economic Studies, specializing in marketing. I believe this would be the best choice for me career wise, as it would allow me to combine my creative side with other abilities.

For me Erasmus is a one-of-a-kind program. I’ve wished to participate since high school started and now that I have this opportunity, I won’t take it for granted. Beyond the obvious exchange that is exciting, I strongly believe that Erasmus is an opportunity to meet people, grow connections and understand the differences between cultures and learn from them, all while cherishing the time u spend, in a fun and engaging way. I can’t wait to find out the results, and I would be more than happy to be chosen.🩷🫶🏻

I would like to join the Erasmus program to expand my academic horizons, explore new cultures, and exchange ideas with students from different backgrounds. I see this experience as a chance to grow personally and professionally, gaining independence, responsibility, and communication skills.

Besides my studies, I am involved in extracurricular and volunteer activities, I enjoy learning foreign languages, and I consider myself perseverant and a good team player. These qualities, together with my enthusiasm for anatomy, make me confident that I can benefit from and contribute to this program.

Over the course if my highschool years I have taken upon a lot of challenges and projects that have shaped me into the person I am today. I would like to start by describing in few words my team from the European Parliament Ambassador School programme that have always supported me and have become a family to me. Alongside them I was able to organise the European Country Fair, an activity dedicated to the celebration of the European Union on the 9th may, for two years in a row. Moreover, I am the secretary of the Executive Bureau of the Students Council, from my highschool which has been a great opportunity for me to uplift and represent all the students in my school. Besides that, I volunteered on multiple occasions in hopes to help raise money for charitable causes.

I’ve always been passionate about the arts, especially music and visual arts, and I enjoy discovering new ways of looking at things.

For me, the Erasmus+ experience is a chance to grow, discover different cultures, and meet inspiring people.

I see it as an opportunity to step out of my comfort zone, become more independent, and build connections that can truly shape my future.

My name is Luca Andrei Stana, I am from Bucharest, Romania. I am an 11th-grade student at the Social Sciences profile of “Ion Barbu” Theoretical High School and I would describe myself as a curious teenager, open to new experiences, eager to discover my passions. I am a young person in the stage of learning to know myself and to understand what I truly like, someone who is still searching for his path, but who wishes to grow and to learn from every experience – a combination of dreams, fears, courage, and the desire to succeed, a puzzle that does not yet have all its pieces in place, but whose image is slowly taking shape. I also love sports. I hold both the ECDL and the Cambridge B2 certificates.

I am truly glad that the European Union’s Erasmus+ Program, dedicated to education, training, youth, and sport, has returned to our school. This program combines all the previous EU initiatives and offers mobility opportunities for students, teaching staff, and young people through exchanges, internships, and volunteering activities. I want to take part in this project because I enjoy learning and discovering new things. Only in this way I can shape a future that will bring me satisfaction in every respect – both moral and financial.

I am at the age when all adults ask me the question: “What do you want to do next?” A question that is difficult to answer, as long as we, through the current educational system, are somehow limited. School programs do not allow teachers to truly discover our talents and inclinations, so that they could guide us accordingly. Parents are often too busy, too tired from their jobs, and most of the time their advice is simply: “Don’t do what I’ve done, because you see I have no satisfaction anymore.”

I truly want to participate in the Erasmus project in order to experience other educational systems from the inside and to understand the differences and similarities between them, so that I may bring back and perhaps help implement into our own educational system those elements worthy of being adopted.

I believe that this experience will help me develop personally and academically, and that it will guide me in preparing my answer to the adults question: “What do you want to do next?”

Thank you for your time, and I kindly ask you to allow me to open this door.

I would love to join this ERASMUS project because I see it as a very good opportunity to grow, both emotionally and academically and develop my skills in various subjects. Since I first heard about it - when I started highschool in 9th grade - I wanted to get involved because it would allow me to meet other cultures and would make me step out of my comfort zone. It can also help me build connections with people from all over Europe, thus improving my social skills.

In the past two years, i was a member of EPAS (European Parliament Ambassador School), where I learned a lot about European countries and teamwork. I have also participated in different projects, school olympiads and competitions. I am now part of my school Debate Club, which I hope will make me become more confident when I speak in front of a big audience. All of these experiences have supported me and will continue to guide me as I plan to get more involved in activities that will help me grow and shape me into the adult I want to become.

I am sure that Erasmus+ will not only show me what being a student in another European country feels like, but will also help me develop myself, meet new people and maybe even make new friends. I can’t wait to see what this program has to offer and I really hope I can be a part of this amazing educational adventure!

My name is Stanciulescu Sigrid and I’m 19 years old. I am a senior at the Ion Barbu Theoretical Highschool in Bucharest, and my favourite subject is english.

I am an honest and responsible person who always wants to lend a helping hand. I also consider myself someone who loves working in a team and who always wishes to see the people around me happy. I am really passionate in arts and fashion and my biggest wish is to get into the fashion industry in the welcoming future.

I got so excited when I heard about Erasmus+ in our school. I believe this project is an extraordinary opportunity for me, as it allows me to discover new people, learn about different cultures, and build connections that can turn into unforgettable memories. Moreover, is a life-changing experience which permits me to grow, share ideas and be more open to new challenges. Lastly, getting me out of my common zone is something I’ve always chased as well as improving my social and communication skills.

I really hope we’ll meet each other and build a strong and beautiful connection out of this experience.

I enjoy solving challenging problems and exploring the logic behind algorithms. At school I participate in all kinds of competitions, including some that are not related to my profile. For example, I have entered contests for composing poems in English. I have competed up to the national stage at the Digital Innovation Olympiad, where I learned how to deal with pressure and manage my time effectively.

I have also been involved in volunteering, which helped me gain experience communicating with different people, solving practical problems, and making sure tasks are completed correctly. Volunteering taught me responsibility, teamwork, and how to communicate efficiently with others.

Although I am passionate about logical problems and my school subjects one of my biggest hobbies is playing football. I try to combine sports and studying, and so far I manage both well. I also enjoy learning other languages because I find them useful when traveling and because knowing the local language makes meeting new people easier.

I am enthusiastic to take part in the Erasmus project because I want to learn from other cultures, improve my language and communication skills, and work with students from different countries. I see Erasmus as a chance to experience new ways of learning, exchange ideas about school life and projects, and develop my teamwork and leadership in an international setting. I am especially interested in participating in group activities, workshops, and cultural exchanges that will help me become more open-minded and better prepared to work with people from different countries.

I am also fascinated by the many opportunities Erasmus can open up later in life. My goal after graduating is to move abroad, and participating in this project can help me achieve that by giving me experience in responsibility, independence, and how to combine work with discovering new cultures. I see it as a unique chance to increase my future opportunities, exchange ideas with students from other countries about our societies, and become used to living and communicating within another country’s daily life.

One of my biggest passions is medicine. I am fascinated by how science can improve people’s lives, and my dream is to study medicine in the future.

Another important passion of mine is hockey, especially following the NHL. Hockey has taught me about teamwork, discipline, and perseverance. These values are also very important in school and in life.

Through Erasmus+, I want to share my interests, meet people with different hobbies, and also learn from their passions.

I really like reading books,and the last one i picked up was Animal Farm by George Orwell,a dystopian novella with a really deep message behind it.

I am a part of the journalism club and i also applied for the EPAS program.

I would love to participate in the Erasmus+ program because it’s something I’ve been looking forward to since eighth grade, before choosing to come to this school.

I see this program as an opportunity to learn, grow, and connect with other people.

I also believe I would be a good fit for it, since I'm both sociable and open-minded. I truly enjoy listening to others' perspectives and learning from them. I think every person sees the world in their own way, and these different perspectives can help us understand each other (and ourselves) and build stronger bonds.

If you were to ask my friends to describe me, they would most certainly say I’m a determined student who works well with others and values teamwork. I believe every single member of a team contributes to the final result. Each person is important, something I’ve learned from my own experiences.

By participating in this program, I hope to not only put to use existing skills once again but to also improve them. I believe it will help me develop important abilities for the future and contribute to my self- development.Plus this project will help me continue my studies abroad.

  I like a lot of things. In my free time, a few of my favourite activities include hiking, running, drawing, reading and writing. Academically, my focus lies mainly in biology and chemistry, as, one day, I'd like to pursue my dreams of being a doctor, but, sometimes, I'm afraid my dreams will crumble beneath my feet. I don't like saying it, but, for a while now, it has felt like our educational system values test results over knowledge acquired. And, to be frank, this is part of the reason why I'm so excited about this opportunity. I get to experience a new educational system from the inside while also getting to know new people and new aspects of other cultures. 

  I know I'm still a child, but my worries are getting bigger by the year. There's a question I keep hearing: "What do you want to be when you grow up?". And the question is not even new. In fact, it's like it's always been there. I remember being as young as 5 years old and being asked the same thing, but, now, at 15 years old, the same question I used to answer excitedly seems to carry a sense of urgency. At this point in time and space, everyone needs to know how to speak at least one foreign language, and not only for a job prospect, but also for yourself. That being said, this opportunity doesn't only help with personal growth, it also helps with professional growth. 

  I'd like to welcome the ERASMUS+ experience in my life in order to deepen my knowledge in the English language, and to enhance my communication skills. I would also get to experience new cultures, be exposed to new people, learn about different perspectives and develop new skills. By participating in this program, I'd like to step out of my comfort zone and create experiences that I'll never forget.

  Thank you for your time and consideration.

I see myself as a very sociable,curious and extroverted person, who is also patient and enjoys working in a team. Basketball has been part of my life since I was 8 years old, and it taught me not only discipline and perseverance, but also how important cooperation and team spirit are. I like to discover new things, to explore beyond my comfort zone and to take on challenges, which is why I believe Erasmus+ is the perfect opportunity for me.

I would love to meet new people, make friends and exchange experiences, while learning more about their traditions, cultures and daily lives. At the same time, I am very interested in discovering how the education system works in schools abroad and how it differs from ours, because I believe this comparison can help me improve both academically and personally.

For me, this project is not only a chance to travel, but also to learn more about myself, to grow socially and educationally, and to build unforgettable memories.

During my studies, I enjoy developing both logical and creative skills, combining clear thinking with curiosity and teamwork. I believe Erasmus+ offers the chance to grow not only academically, but also socially, by improving communication in English, building confidence, and learning to adapt to new environments. I am also interested in seeing how students from other countries approach learning and collaboration.

I can’t wait to discover and learn more about other cultures, people and the way everyday life unfolds in other countries. That’s exactly why I would love to join the Erasmus+ program.

I’m a very free spirited person so I enjoy a variety of things. I like feeling free, communicating and exploring anything of my interest. It’s part of what makes me extremely sociable and friendly. I like meeting new people and juggling with different perspectives, experiences and knowledge other people have gathered. I like making friends, because it’s a way to feel integrated, have fun and to help others grow as people as well as myself.

In my free time I usually enjoy going for relaxing walks while listening to music, it really helps me ease out my mind and get out of my everyday habits. I also enjoy reading books, as they improve my memory and help me discover new information that might come in handy. I usually prefer psychology, adventure, philosophy or fiction. Besides that I also enjoy a variety of sports such as volleyball, swimming, Pilates, calisthenics, dancing and sometimes running.

I spoke my first words in English at the age of three, having my father teach me a few of the words he learned in college. Eventually I started learning it in school in second grade and became fluent by the age of 10. In 7th grade I got a mention diploma at English Olympics and last year I participated in the eTwinning project where I was able to improve my English speaking skills and also learn about the environment and internet safety. Also I will be taking the B2 Cambridge exam on the 20th of October.

I want to participate in this program so that I can learn more about different educational systems and the countries that harbour them. I also want to make more friends, get to meet more people and make more friends, get to know about them and support them in their dreams. I also want it to be a learning opportunity, I am determined to make most of it and to engage in the activities offered by Erasmus as well as learn to get acquainted with other European countries and learning abroad to prepare myself for the big step I want to take in my academic life after high school.

I am ready for the journey that is ahead of me and I am really hoping to be part of this great project. Sending all my best wishes to everybody!

I am sociable, curious person who likes playing basketball. This sport has taught me decipline, how to stay focused under pressure, and how to crontol my emotions when things don’t go as planned. It also showed me the importance of teamwork and coopertion, witch has helped me a lot in group projects. These experinces made the person i am today someone kind, patient, motivated and ready to take on challenges.

I want to join erasmus because it is unique experience that allows me to step out of my comfort zone. I belive every new situation is a chance to learn and grow. I will improve my english and share my experience with people from diffrent countries.

From an early age, I discovered that I enjoyed understanding how things work and finding solutions to problems, so mathematics and computer science became my favorite fields, because they challenge me to think critically and creatively. At the age of seven, I joined programming classes for children, starting with Scratch and later moving to more complex languages such as Java. This journey taught me not only coding but also patience and perseverance.

Outside of school, swimming has been a part of my life since I was four years old. It has shaped my character, teaching me discipline and endurance. Swimming has given me the mindset to never give up.

Another meaningful experience was my participation in an architecture activity during middle school. Together with my team, we developed a project that won first place and provided us with the budget to renovate our school attic. Seeing our ideas turn into a real transformation of our school was unforgettable, it showed me the power of teamwork, creativity and determination to make a positive impact on a community.

I believe that Erasmus will allow me to use all these experiences in an international environment. I am excited about the idea of meeting students from different backgrounds and bringing back new ideas and perspectives to share with my peers.

I am truly looking forward to the possibility of representing my school and my country while contributing positively to this program.

Here I study mathematics and computer science because I want to become a succesfull IT worker or an engineer in a car factory working as a developer in the car’s components. I like to discover new things and to communicate with others especially when we are dealing with a demanding problem and I get a satisfaction when we solve it and others appreciate it.

By being part of Erasmus project I hope hope to enhance my abilities of communicating, public speaking which I think will help me and are essential in my college years, but also after I graduate and I will get a job.

All in all, from Erasmus+ I want to learn new things, meet new people and to master my proficiency and scholarship.

I can’t wait to participate in this project and as soon as I’ m in, I’ ll give all my best.

I am also looking forward to learning new high valuable skill that will help me in my close future. Getting to be part of this program will be great for developing new skills and strengthening the ones I already have. I will like to also learn about other countries and improve my general knowledge.

Can't wait to get part in Erasmus+'s activities and meet new student's!

For my hobbies, I enjoy playing sports, drawing, music, cooking, watching anime, and anything computer related. I enjoy learning about new cultures and traditions, such as the lifestyles of people in other parts of the world and how their cultures and traditions influence their daily lives.

Through the Erasmus project, I hope to improve my communication skills, meet new friends from other countries, and exchange ideas that can help me grow both academically and personally. I believe that participating in such an international program will also help me become more open-minded and adaptable to new environments.

I am also very interested in teamwork and collaboration. I believe that working with peers from different cultural backgrounds is a great opportunity to help develop problem-solving skills and to learn how to approach challenges and issues from different and unique perspectives.

One of my goals during this experience is to share my passion for technology and art with others, while also learning about their hobbies and talents. I believe that everyone has something unique to bring to the table, and I yearn to discover new interests that I might not have explored before.

In the future, I aspire to study architecture at the University of Architecture and Urbanism "Ion Mincu". I am convinced that the knowledge and friendships I gain during Erasmus will inspire me and give me valuable experiences that will help me reach this dream.

I am looking forward to making new friends, exploring new places, and building memories that I will remember with nostalgia. I can't wait to meet you all! 😌

I am 16 years old, and I consider myself a bit of an introverted person, but this year I promised myself to try and get out of my shell. I enjoy listening to all types of music but mostly lively music. I also like reading, especially thriller and mystery. Last year I was a part of the PR and Communication Department, where I discovered that I like writing articles, so this year I joined the Journalism Club.

At the start of 2024, I took the Cambridge exam, and I got the B2 Certificate. Also last year I joined some Olympiads to challenge myself, my scores may not have been perfect, but I am proud of myself. When I was younger, I played a lot of chess, and one year I managed to win the County Chess Olympiad in Giurgiu. I also helped as a volunteer in some school events, and I plan on helping more this year.

When I first heard of the Erasmus+, I was in either 6th or 7th grade, I fell in love with the idea of doing my studies in another country. I imagined all the amazing people I would have the occasion to meet and the paths that would open for me. The idea of travelling was always pleasant to me, ever since I could remember I would visit various places with my parents, from the sea to waterfalls high up in the mountains.

I still do not know what I want to do in the future, but experiencing new things will hopefully help me in discovering my passion.

I am 15 years old and I like to read, listen to music, play volleyball and make new friends. Although I am a social sciences student, I like to study math and chemistry. I think I am a good, empathic and generous person.

I would really like to be part of the project Erasmus+, because it is an opportunity for me to discover new cultures, people and education systems from another country. If I am selected for the project, I would have the chance to discover more about the country I will visit and make new friends.

I have never been part of an Erasmus project before and I would really like to live this unique experience that could help me discover myself and understand my abilities better.

I am looking forward to this experience!

Since I can remember, I have been deeply interested in learning foreign languages, starting with English, for which I have obtained the B2 Cambridge Certificate three years ago. Currently, part of my efforts is focused on continuing the process by gaining the next level certification, C1. During this summer vacation, I have begun learning Spanish on my own, and more recently, with a tutor, as my dream is to study law abroad, in Spain. At the same time, at school, I am also attending French classes and, despite the fact that I had to catch up with the other students, since in secondary school I have only studied German and English, I have successfully reached the required level. In addition, I am fond of travelling, meeting new people and exploring various cultures – experiences which I find tremendously enriching. Until now, I have already had the opportunity to visit different countries and identify some very impressive ones, yet I am sure that the Erasmus+ experience would expand my horizons even more.

I also believe this programme will challenge me to step out of my comfort zone, improve my public speaking and teamwork skills, and deepen my understanding of European cultural and social diversity. The knowledge gained from the participation will add one more brick to the solid foundation I am trying to build for myself, as a valuable European citizen eager to contribute to a more united and effective society. For now, if I get to join the programme, I plan on sharing the lessons learned, through the projects I will later involve in at school or in my community. I truly hope to be chosen and to make the most of this opportunity.

I am a friendly and open person, who enjoys connecting with new people. One of my favorite parts of making new friends is learning about their stories, passions, and the unique aspects of their lives. I’m always curious about the perspectives and traditions that shape who they are.

This is why the Erasmus project feels like a perfect and exciting opportunity for me. It would allow me to do what I like. At the same time, it would be an incredible chance to learn more about other countries and their cultures. I believe this project is not just about academic exchange, but a beautiful way to create new friendships and discover the world.

I would describe myself as a curious and extroverted person, eager to explore new topics and connect with new people. My strong desire for knowledge has motivated me to engage in a variety of activities and projects. For instance, through the EPAS program (European Parliament Ambassador School) I have learned about the importance of the European Union and active citizenship. I also joined the psychology club, which during my first year of high school helped me integrate smoothly into the new environment. More recently, I became a member of the debate club, where I have started to overcome my fear of public speaking and gain confidence when expressing my ideas.

I believe that participating in Erasmus+ would be a truly transformative experience for me. It would allow me to acquire new skills that will come in handy for my future career and personal development, while also enhancing the abilities I already have, such as teamwork, adaptability, and effective communication. By collaborating with people from different cultural and educational backgrounds, I would learn how to approach problems from multiple perspectives and how to work efficiently in an international team. At the same time, exposure to new cultures and traditions would broaden my horizons, strengthen my tolerance and open-mindedness, and help me grow into a more responsible and active European citizen.

Travelling around the world has always been my dream. I’d love to find out more about the various cultures of the world, I want to try traditional dishes and socialise with people of different nationalities; only so can I find out how they think and feel.

I study social science, where we can learn psychology, history or law. I decided to follow this path with the aim of discovering myself and my purpose for the future. This is one of the solid reasons why I intend to welcome the ERASMUS+ “Skills4Future” project in my life. I have high hopes that this will help me find out what university I want to go to.

I’m attending intensive English classes, which are intended for enthusiasts and lovers of English. They will help me cross language barriers, but my love for art will definitely help me connect with the entire world, as the feelings it inspires are universal. This is one of the bridges I’d love to build in our community.

I’m incredibly excited about the possibility of joining the Erasmus+ project. To be honest, I’m at a point in my life where I’m thinking a lot about my future. My dream is to study Medicine at UMFCD and eventually become a dermatologist. I think this experience would be a perfect first step to gain some independence, see how healthcare and education are viewed in other cultures, and help me decide if studying abroad later on might be right for me.

A lot of who I am, I've learned on the volleyball court. The sport has taught me more than just how to spike a ball. It taught me about constant communication, trusting my teammates, and that a loss is just a chance to adapt and come back stronger. I'm also getting a very real taste of responsibility and community through my volunteering with Proedus. These experiences have helped me realize I work well with others.I’m a good listener who values everyone's ideas, but I'm also ready to take the lead when needed.

To me, the Erasmus+ project sounds like more than just a trip,it feels like an important step in growing as a person. I'm really looking forward to meeting everyone, sharing my thoughts, and learning from all of you. I have a feeling we'll create some amazing memories together.

I’m also a member of European Parliament Ambassador School where I learned about the EU, what are my rights and obligations as a European citizen. This program helped me get rid of anxiety while being in front of many people, also in my debating experience and how to debate and prove my points correctly and usefully. Right now, I’m a certified volunteer of Save the Children Romania. In training, I learned the importance of boundaries and how to manage a bullying situation. For my personal growth, it helped me understand more deeply how much words hurt and how I can influence others with my actions and speech. Overall, I had a big self-growth with the help of my high school. I’m very grateful to be here.

I believe Erasmus+ will help me understand others better as people and culture. On the other hand, it will help me get out of my comfort zone and challenge me to think and understand out of my perspective. I believe every time we take and see something serious we should also think outside of our perspective to see how others think, so my decision won’t be influenced by emotions. I think that this program will help me continue my self-growth as a teenager much more than the listed activities I participated in. I’m really grateful for having the opportunity to apply for this type of program. I also think that meeting people outside of my country will change my point of view and help me understand the world better from a totally different perspective based on cultural and traditional thinking and judgment. I'm looking forward to meeting new people, create bonds, exchange ideas with others and learning more about others and their way of thinking!

I am passionate about understanding people, from psychology and history to culture and society. My biggest goal in life is to become a psychological profiler, a career where curiosity about human behavior, empathy, and analysis come together. I believe that being part of Erasmus will help me develop these skills further, by experiencing new cultures, perspectives, and ways of thinking.

In school, I’ve maintained strong grades while also dedicating myself to extracurriculars and volunteering, learning the value of giving back and growing alongside my community. A highlight has been joining the EPAS (European Parliament Ambassador School) programme, which sparked my passion for politics, improved my public speaking, and taught me the power of collaboration.

I also serve as Director of PR and Communication Departament in the Student’s Council Executive Bureau, where I’ve worked to improve transparency, student engagement, and creative marketing strategies.

Beyond academics, I love arts and literature. Books, acting, and films have always fascinated me, yet I want to experience culture not only through stories or screens that seperate me, but directly, by living it and seeing it with my own eyes. Erasmus+ offers that chance: to discover traditions, exchange ideas, and connect through creativity.

I would be truly honored to be part of Erasmus+. This programme won’t just be a chance to travel, it will be a way to grow, a way to connect with other people, a way to challenge myself. I’m extroverted, ambitious, adaptable and creative, and I want to use those qualities to contribute positively to the Erasmus+ community, while also shaping myself for the future I’ve always dreamed.

I really enjoy communicating with others, and since I was little I have had a passion for theater because I somehow always manage to live the experiences so intensely. My dream is to travel and experience all types of cultures too! I believe this experience will help me broaden my academic horizons and learn how to collaborate with people from different cultures.

I hope that in this program I will discover myself, getting out of my comfort zone and learning how to manage in my future life!

I want to take advantage of this opportunity to improve my knowledge, but also to bring home experiences and ideas that can inspire other students.

ERASMUS + gives me hope for a new vision on my journey!

My name is Alexia Valentina Jilăveanu, I am 17 years old and I live in Ilfov, Romania. I am currently a student at the “Ion Barbu” Theoretical High School, in the Social Sciences profile. I really like English, Psychology and Literature.

I would describe myself as an open-minded, friendly, curious and perseverant person. I enjoy discovering new experiences that help me grow and build my self-confidence step by step. Over time, I have explored passions such as acting, drawing, writing, debate and public speaking. These activities allow me to express myself, connect with others and learn to see the world from different perspectives.

I am actively involved in school and community life. I am the president of the debate club, a member of the journalism club, a participant in the EPAS (European Parliament Ambassador School Programme) and I also belong to a public speaking club called Speakers Net. In addition, I volunteer in organizations such as the Red Cross, Save the Children and Proedus (an organization where there are activities like debates, events for children and much more), where I have learned how valuable it is to support children and young people in discovering their own strengths.

What motivates me the most is the joy of learning and the wish to constantly improve myself. Since I was younger, I’ve struggled with self confidence, so for the past two years, I’ve done my best to get out of my comfort zone and had the chance to meet many wonderful people. And Erasmus feels like a life changing opportunity to connect with more brilliant young minds, to exchange ideas, to experience other cultures and to grow together as a team. I am sure I will be able to further improve important skills, such as adapting to challenging situations and practicing my English. So I will work really hard to be a part of this lovely programme!

I am very excited to participate in this journey, that will allow me to build life lasting connections and give me opportunities that will help me achieve my dream of going to Law School. I cannot wait to meet the team and continue my mission of becoming the best version of myself!

I am Radu Grosanu and I am studying Mathematics and Computer Science at Ion Barbu Theoretical High School in Bucharest.

I am passionate about music, history, and reading, and I am a very creative person.

My reasoning behind wanting to join the Erasmus program is that I would like to learn as much and as efficiently as possible, and I see this as an opportunity to explore different cultures, ideas, and traditions, to meet new people, and to face all types of situations that can help me grow.

I consider this program a social one, meant to teach us lessons as a group made up of unique individuals who share common interests. For me, some of those interests are the desire to explore and to evolve.

I am genuinely enthusiastic about the opportunity to take part in this program.

Since I was a child I loved travelling, meeting people and trying new things. Once I organized a debate about Romanian traditions with my classmates, and we ended up with lively debates, new friendships and a lot of laughs.That moment taught me how a simple idea can connect people.

I consider myself creative, determined and comfortable leading a group when needed. I have experience planning events, communicating with partners and helping newcomers feel included. Volunteering and also when I participated in an EPAS program taught me to be practical and to keep calm when things don’t go as planned.

If selected, I will contribute ideas, help run activities and learn from everyone involved. I care about bringing back what I learn to my school — sharing methods, projects and motivation. I’m ready to work hard and give all i have to this project

I will also document the journey.

I am a perseverant person, always trying to improve myself and to become the best version of who I can be. I enjoy learning new things, facing challenges, and gaining experiences that will help me in both my academic and personal life. I also hold a Cambridge English Certificate at level B2, which I believe will help me communicate effectively during the Erasmus+ project.

I am a very sociable and friendly person, and I truly enjoy meeting people from different cultures. I love sports and socializing, because they bring people together and help build strong connections. Through this Erasmus+ experience, I would like to share my own culture, but also to learn about the traditions, habits, and lifestyles of other students from all around Europe. I believe this exchange of ideas and values is one of the most important steps toward mutual understanding and personal growth.

I want to welcome this program into my life because it represents a great opportunity to gain useful skills for the future, to develop my abilities, and to connect what I am learning in school with the careers and responsibilities that await me later on. I see Erasmus+ not only as a chance to learn, but also as a way to make new friends, to build valuable memories, and to prepare myself for the world beyond high school.

In conclusion, I am motivated to learn more about the world and other countries, to grow as a person, and to contribute positively to the program. I can’t wait to meet you and to start this unique journey together.

Thank you very much for your consideration.

Since I was young, I loved dancing, singing, acting, reading and traveling. I have been dancing since I was 5 years old and I have tried lots dancing styles. Thanks to this, I’ve met a lot of people, who I still keep in touch with. Back in middle school, I used to take piano and singing lessons, but I stopped since I wanted to focus more on my academics, for now at least. This year, I travelled a lot. I’ve been to Cyprus at the beginning of the summer, then, in July, I went to Austria with a school camp, where we visited a lot of amazing places. Finally, in August, me and my parents went to Greece to relax before the school started.

After I entered in high school, I started volunteering and joining programs at my school. For exemple, this summer I was a volunter at Nerversea Kapital, a very big music festival in Romania. Last year, I joined EPAS program( European Parlament Ambasodor School), where I learned a lot about European Union and it’s importance, PROEDUS, which is a volunteering program for high school studens, and I also joined an exchange students program organized by our High School together with 2 other schools from diferent city. In this program, we stayed 4 days at a person form one of the other city, went to school with them and also visiting the respective cities. This year, I joined the debate club where I plan to practice my public speaking, but also gaining confidence in expressing my ideas and also, I want to audition for the artistic department.

With the Erasmus program I hope to learn a lot, try new experiences, meet and make some new amazing people and travel to new places. I always liked going to new places and exploring other cities and cultures, which I can learn a lot from. With my friendly nature and kind personality, I am sure I am going to make new friends in no time.

I always liked traveling and seeing how a day of a person that lives in another country looks like. I am good at working as a team and contributing to assignments, but i think that i am also good at making friends. One time in elementary school me and some other kids were all put into a team for a project, but i wasn’t reallt friends with any of them. By the time we had finished our assignment me and those kids got much closer and started to really enjoy each other’s company.

If i were to be selected for the Erasmus+ project i would come up with new ideas, a working mentality and a great energy. I am ready to make new memories, new friends, and to develop new skills. I really hope i can get this opportunity to prove myself and to experience something different.

I have been interested in discipline, creativity, and performance all together since I was young. I did performance dance for about 10 years and became a national champion in bachata (formation, trio, and solo) and salsa. I won several awards in national and international level competitions. I learned perseverance, teamwork, and challenging myself daily through this.

Now, I focus on both my academic development and interest in medicine. I am a member of MedsPath Club, the only medical club in collaboration with University Hospital Bucharest and "Carol Davila" University of Medicine. This project reaffirmed my passion for the medical field since I would love to pursue a career as a pediatric surgeon or gynecologist. This year I also joined the debate club at my high school since I would like to improve my public speaking and learn how to debate. In April, I attended LTN MUN (Model United Nations), which further interested me in debating and motivated me to continue.

I also do volunteering. I just volunteered for the Medical Admission Exam Simulation, which further exposed me to medicine and to volunteering.

My favorite subjects at school are biology and psychology as they fulfill my curiosity and allow me to learn more about the human body and human behavior. I also like traveling, discovering various cultures and civilization, and forming friends along the way.

I am a sociable and adaptive person with a fine ability for getting along with others. I can work well in groups but can also take charge and be proactive when the need arises. I believe that my curiosity and attention to details allow me to learn things easily and be adaptive to new circumstances. At the same time, I am empathetic and a good listener with a willingness always to encourage and support others. I am passionate, open-minded, and eager to listen to new ideas. They are not only those qualities that govern how I engage with individuals but also how I respond to life's problems and possibilities.

My motivation to take part in the Erasmus+ SKILLS4FUTURE project is to encounter new people, know their experiences, learn about other nations' education systems and acquire global friendships. I consider this experience to be a great opportunity to grow professionally and personally, and I am truly looking forward to the possibility of being involved in the project. I believe that I have a lot to offer and can make a valuable contribution through my skills and motivation.

Most of my time it's dedicated to studying for school but I always take some time for me and go for a long and relaxing walk on the streets of Bucharest.

I really want to be a part of this ERASMUS+ project because it's a very good opportunity for me to improve my comunication skills and have fun at the same time.

When I finish high school I want to go to economy school because my dream is to become an accountant and I'm sure that the skills I will get from this project will help me to fulfill my dream.

I'm sure this project will be a very fun experience and I'm so excited for it.

Professionally, my father is a primary school teacher at a state school in Bucharest and my mother is an accountant, both with higher education. We live in Sector 3, Bucharest, in a residential area of ​​new and beautiful apartaments building.

Besides the academic side, sports occupy an important place in my life. I have been playing performance basketball for 12 years with great results: I was a double national champion in youth basketball, winning two gold medals. Daily training and sports have developed skills that I consider essential for life: perseverance, responsibility, discipline, fighting spirit and sacrifice, fair play, teamwork. I learned to enjoy winning, but also to learn, to progress after defeats or failures that seemed painful.

At the same time, both at school and in high school, I was and am a starting player or even a leader (team captain) in the school basketball teams. I contributed decisively to winning medals and top places in local competitions and school olympiads, contributing to the successful representation of the image of the schools where I was a student.

Sport has brought me many positive experiences. Since I was a young child, I have participated alone in numerous training camps, trips to national and international tournaments (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Slovakia, Italy, Poland, Serbia ). That's how I learned from a young age to be independent, to help other teammates. I am a child known by many other children, I am popular, very sociable, always optimistic and cheerful, I have a good image in the sports and school community I am part of.

I also participated in Proedus volunteer actions for two years in a row, such as: “Open Streets”, “Your Vocation”, “Karting Olympics”, various sports competitions, educational summer camps, guide at the Children's Museum. All of this helped me become a good organizer, to understand how other people think, to help in various situations, to know how to independently manage and resolve certain situations, even under pressure.

At the moment I am vice-president of the Dance Club of “Ion Barbu” High School, where I have the role of organizer, coordinator and coach of students. In the 9th grade, I participated and won 1st place in the “Miss and Mister” contest of “Ion Barbu” High School. For these reasons, I wanted other students to go through the same positive experience, being an active member of the staff organizing the High School prom every year, with marketing, financial contributions, student training, having an important role in creating the best possible image for my high school.

On a personal level, I learned what diversity means. I changed several basketball teams, schools, and homes. For this reason, I consider myself a teenager with a great capacity for integrating into new social media, adapting to changes and the new. Every year, since the age of 10, I climbed a large mountain in Romania with my father (Ceahlau, Toaca, Moldoveanu, Piatra Craiului, Omu etc.). I learned to love and respect nature, I became a strong character from a mental point of view, I often exceeded my limits, I did not give in to hardship. Since I was little, I have traveled annually on vacation with my family, to some countries in Europe, Africa (United Arab Emirates - Dubai, Tunisia, Egypt, England, Greece, Turkey, Croatia, Bulgaria, Serbia, Cyprus), where I met people with other cultures, other ways of thinking, diverse civilizations. I have learned what tolerance between different people means.

I have successfully attended and graduated from Cambridge English courses, I have level B1. I have set myself the goal of moving on to the next levels of English in the coming period.

I am convinced that all these experiences can be successfully shared by me to other children, it can help me contribute positively and help the good progress of this program.

I really want to participate in the Erasmus+ program, to complete my life experiences, to visit new and diverse countries and cities, to meet and make new friends with other types of people, to practically develop my ability to express myself in English.

I can't wait to successfully be part of the great Erasmus+ team!

I am Ana Maria Ionescu and I live in Bucharest, Romania.

I am a 9th grade student in the natural sciences profile at Ion Barbu Theoretical High School, sector 5.

I would be happy to participate in the Erasmus program.

To be honest, for me, this experience will be unique and very interesting.

The Erasmus program is a good way to develop my knowledge and social skills.

I have always considered myself a friendly and warm person, but also a very good listener.

I am also a curious person who wants to discover the world by exploring it.

I like the idea of ​​traveling abroad, because it is a great way to learn about other people's traditions and cultures.

A trip will also give me special memories that I will never forget.

The Erasmus program will be a very beneficial experience for me and will help me develop socially.

With the help of the program, I will be able to improve my teamwork and English.

I'm glad I had the chance to introduce myself and I hope I will be selected for this experience.

Hello! My name is Andreea-Alexia Alexandru and I am a 9th-grade student at lon Barbu Theoretical Highschool. Here I study Natural Sciences, a profile that is based on physics, biology, and chemistry. My choice to pursue this profile was deeply influenced by my sister who is currently studying medicine at the University of Medicine and Pharmacy 'Carol Davila' Bucharest. Seeing her dedication and passion for helping others has inspired me to do the same thing and help the world. I feel fascinated about the human body, how it works and I would like to discover all the ways and all the treatments that will be useful to cure diseases.

I am actively involved in activities that help my development and communication. I volunteer at 'PROEDUS' where I have learned the value of empathy and collaboration and I have recently joined my high school's volunteer program where I am very excited to contribute to my school community. One of my favourite memories from middle school was co-writing and performing a play for the 'Francophonie' festival. Together, with my friend, we built a team, rehearsed, and represented our school, earning a special mention for our efforts. This experience taught me the power of teamwork, perseverance, and creativity.

I also have a special love for religion. For this reason, for three years in a row, I participated in the 'Orthodox Religion and Worship Olympiad,' where I was honored to receive second and later first place at the municipal level. After that experience, I have learned a lot of things about the history of our religion, as well as about some other cultures and their traditions.

This summer I realized how much I enjoy helping people. I started tutoring three kids from primary school at english,and later I also helped two students my own age. It wasn’t just about teaching them, but also about sharing experiences and learning together.

Lately, I feel that every experience I go through helps shape me as a person. I’m at a point in my life where I’m discovering who I am and starting to figure out what I want to do with my future. For me, the Erasmus+ experience could be a real turning point — a chance to rediscover myself and to grow. I know that not everything in life always works out the way I plan, but I try to stay positive and keep working on becoming the best version of myself. I want to keep learning, keep improving, and do my part to make the world a little better.

Being a fan of Chemistry is mainly why I would apply to Erasmus+ program and also because I like experimenting new things, like in a chemical reaction. Seeing how substances react and transform is fascinating to me. It makes me curious to learn more every time.

In seventh grade I competed against 526 student teams in the 27th edition of the “Noi şi Chimia?!” (eng - Us & Chemistry) contest and I was happy to take third place.

I also like Physics since it informs us about how the world functions, from the most basic movements to the universe as a whole. I prefer to solve certain problems and come up with solutions logically because it forces me to think more and use what I learn.

I’m not quite sure what I really what to pursue later on, but what I do know for certain is that I would like to continue my studying abroad. I want to learn from a young age how to be independent, how to rely on myself with confidence and how to understand the world better, from all the possible aspects.

The idea of connecting with people from all over the world and experiencing new cultures really inspires me. Being an Erasmus+ member would be a great opportunity for me. It could be a first step in building my future. It would help me grow personally, gain new experiences, and begin shaping the path toward my goals in life.

During my sixth grade, I took part in the Kaufland-sponsored "Save the Children"' campaign called “Schools Against Bullying”, which was meant to motivate us to be kind and respectful of one another. I participated in a project there dedicated to this cause, which made me realize how crucial it is to discourage bullying.

I also recently joined Proedus program as a volunteer, a project launched and sustained by Bucharest City Hall which has allowed me to participate in a variety of activities and develop both professionally and personally. 

I love collecting vinyl records and CDs, and I'm a die-hard music lover, especially alternative, electronic and rap music. For relaxation and getting inspired, I also enjoy hiking and drawing. I love animals, especially cats, and I always feel happy whensurrounded by them.

Learning from real-world experiences and not just textbooks is something I truly enjoy. I can handle a variety of situations and I am flexible, which helps me develop andconfidently take on challenges. I also like working in groups, and if necessary, I can coordinate and guide others.

I am excited to take part in the Erasmus+ program because it will give me the opportunity to interact with people from different backgrounds, experience new environments, and acquire real-world knowledge outside of the classroom. I consider it a unique chance to develop, learn new things, and make significant progress toward my current and future objectives. 

Im a very positive, open-minded and optimistic person, and I enjoy learning new things while having fun. Im really passionate about cultural exchange, meeting new people and making new friends. Besides the things above, I like reading, listening to music, traveling and going to gymnastics competitions. I naturally seek emotionally mature people when I look for new friends, because I love having deep conversations and helping people to understand and get to know themselves.

I would love to welcome an Ersmus+ experience into my life, as i believe that meeting new people and discovering different cultures would be incredibly valuable. Since I would like to work abroad, I think this project would benefit me a lot, by getting me out of my comfort zone.

In the future I would like to study criminology. I have been very passionate about this subject since i was little and im pretty sure i would like to study abroad. The Erasmus+ programme offers me multiple valuable opportunities.

All things considered, I can say that im very excited for this wonderful experience and im really looking forward to it.

I want to join the Erasmus+ programme because I think it is an amazing opportunity to learn new things, meet people from different countries and cultures and to grow as a person.

I have always been curious about other cultures and their way of thinking. I enjoy doing things that keep me creative like traveling with my family, socializing with my friends, exercising and watching documentaries about different cultures, history or crimes.

I would love to discover how students from other countries learn and think about these topics and many more.

Last year I joined the debate team and succesfully completed the course and participated at competition “Tinerii dezbat” where my team and I managed to reach the semi - finals. These activities helped me become more confident when speaking in public and thought me how to clearly and respectfully express my ideas.

I am also a volunteer specializing in first aid techniques and have participated in many volunteer activities. This showed me the importance of team work, responsibility and helping others. Last year I challanged myself, got out of my comfort zone and participed in History, English and Romanian olympiads.

I belive that Erasmus+ programme will help me become more independent, confident and open minded. I have been interested in learning English since I was little, I have a Cambridge B1 certificate and preparing to apply for B2 level certificate soon.

For me Erasmus+ programme is not only about school is also about making new friends, learning, life and about what I can become in the future.

I would describe myself as an energetic , responsable , and open-minded peson.I enjoy learning new things and facing new challanges that help me grow both academically and personally . My favorite subjects are history and English , because they allow me to understant people , cultures , and the world around me better.

I am very interested in international projects like Erasmus+ , as I belive they are greate opportunies to develop communication skills , independence , and teamwork. If I have the chance to join this program , I hope to learn more about cultures , improve my English or learn a new language, and become more independent and confident .At the same time , i would love to share aspects of my own culture and values , creating a meaningful exchange with others.

In the end I am looking forward to join Erasmus+ and hope u will consider my application and want to know more about me.

My name is Teodora, I am 17 years old and I am a student at "Ion Barbu" Theoretical Highschool here in Bucharest. Although my major is in natural sciences, I am a highly artistic individual. I love everything regarding music, acting, drawing and even writing poetry! I ought to believe I have the perfect blend between my left and right hemispheres, the logical and analytical thinking alongside my creative side.

Throughout my limited high school experience, I have learned to take on almost every opportunity I came across. Whether that meant volunteer work, school clubs or even my all time favorite programme, the European Parliament Ambassador School team, I always made sure I gave my everything in them. This represents a crucial reason as of why I would be a great addition to the Erasmus programme!

My most outstanding roles I currently hold are Junior Ambassador of EPAS, the vice-president of our school's drama club, secretary of our debate club and mentor in a mental health volunteering project, KIT (Keep In Touch).

I strongly believe that the Erasmus project will further help me shape my path towards a prestigious European university, that will help me further my education, whilst trying to learn how to help in bettering our world, in the fight with real-life crises, as I wish to pursue a path in social sciences and humanities.

I want to take part in the Erasmus program because I consider it a unique experience to develop myself, both personally and professionally.

I am an open-minded person who likes to communicate and debate on certain topics. I like to make friends and would even be happy to have acquaintances from outside my country, with whom I could discuss and express my opinions.

I like to travel and I think that Erasmus offers me the perfect opportunity to combine the desire to explore with the desire to learn. For me, Erasmus is not just about going abroad, but a chance to discover myself through the eyes of other cultures. I want to leave a positive mark wherever I go and come back with a story worth telling.

I would like to join the Erasmus program because I am curious to see how students in another country learn and how their school system works. I believe this experience would help me grow, become more independent and also improve my English skills.

I am ready to get involved in the activities, to work together with other students and to share my experience after I come back to Romania. For me, Erasmus would be a great chance to learn new things and to build memories that will stay with me for a long time.

My name is Alexandru Cosofret and I am 18 years old. I am currently a student at the Theorethical Highschool Ion Barbu, where I enjoy the most the courses of english and maths.

I like to think of myself as a honest and helpful person, always ready to support others and make people smile. Moreover, I am also a sensitive person who expresses their feelings through music.

As for my hobbies? I started playing guitar in 2020 as an escape from the fact that we were facing the lockdown and now I cannot live without it. Another hobby that I have and truly enjoy is reading, because it helps me relax and discover new perspectives, that’s why I was so excited when I heard about Erasmus in our school.

I hope we’ll meet and build a beautiful friendship out of this once in a lifetime experience.

My passions are: judo, travelling, reading, and art. By participating in the Erasmus programme, I can get the chance to travel and see new places. This will be a great opportunity for me to visit museums and better understanding of the history of the place. Since I fancy art, this will help me experince new styles, by visiting art galleries. Also practicing judo has taught me discipline, so I would make a great candidate for the Erasmus project, since I am well organised and I can aquire a great amount of knowledge in a short period of time. Also, due to my passion for books, I can talk about any subject, being able to have a conversation on any topic, while being able to provide proof of the verity of my words.

I believe that the Erasmus project can help me learn more and develop my current knowledge, by interracting with diferent people from diferent places and cultures. It can also improve my CV, and this can help me in the future, being a great advantage. The chance to participate in this programme would be a great opportunity to learn and live abroad together with people who share the same interests as me.

This being said, I believe that I am suitable for participating in this project.

I consider myself to be a highly motivated and passionate learner, with a particular intrest in foreign languages. As part of my academic goals for this year, i intend to take the Cambridge C1 exam, in December.

Since the 6th grade, I have been deeply commited to pursuing a career as a criminal psychologist. I have already decided that I want to study psychology at "Babeș-Bolyai University", from Cluj-Napoca, and later on, to achieve a Master degree in criminology, from studying aboard.

From my point of view, i find Erasmus to be a project that can extend my outlook on the world, as well as offering me new possibilities for the future. I am eager to participate in this special experience, because it will consolidate my linguistic skills and contribuite significantly to my personal growth. Additionally, I enjoy spending my time on projects that can improve my mindset, while also guiding others, such as volunteering for Proedus. In the past, I have participated in various workshops and courses, involving business and valuing team work.

These experiences have taught me how to listen objectively to new ideas, how to efficiently manage my time and also how to collaboratively work in group settings.

Regarding this project, I am confident that it will enhance my abilities and offer me valuable knowledge related to my chosen field of study. Furthermore, it can give me an understanding on the complexity of human behavior and how the mind works. Engaging in a multicultural atmosphere will also allow me to establish meaningful connections with new people, from different backgrounds, while also exchanging thoughts and opinions with them.

I am truly excited for this opportunity and look forward to developing my communication skills, by addapting in new environments.

I love  geography , I was in a lot of competition and projects about it but I'm also into history , philosophy,  politics and geopolitics as well beacause I like to learn about the world , about the people and about the way they think . 

I'm also into sports . I'm training in three disciplines : MMA( mixed martial arts ) Braziliam jiu jitsu and kickboxing but I really love to talk about other martial arts/ combat sports too. 

I like to meet new people , exploring new cultures, hearing different opinions and perspectives on various topics, and learning about people and places. That’s why I would love to be part of this project

This is my first time applying for such a program and I believe it will help me combine learning with practical experiences. I am curious to discover how other young people my age live, what challenges they face and how they overcome them.

I chose the social sciences profile because I wanted to better understand how society works. I consider myself open-minded, motivated and eager to improve my communication and teamwork skills. I also enjoy meeting new people and exchanging ideas, because I believe diversity teaches us to see the world from different perspectives.

If selected, I will bring energy, curiosity and commitment to the project. I want to contribute with ideas, collaborate with others and share the experiences I gain with my colleagues back home. For me, education is not only about good grades, but about using what you learn to bring positive changes around you.

I am ready to work hard, to step out of my comfort zone and to make the most of this Erasmus+ journey.

My name is Catalin Gorgon and I'm a 9th grade student at the "Ion Barbu" highschool, studying mathematics and computer science.

I like to think of myself as of a hard working soon to be man, very social and smart. I’ve always wanted to learn about the cultures of other countries and I’ve been curious about alternative study systems, other than Romanian ones, as I believe exposure to such systems develops adaptability and improves change management skills.

Since a few years ago, when a teacher of mine told me about the "Erasmus" project, I’ve always dreamed of applying and, hopefully, getting accepted to take part in such an experience. I think this project will help me acquire more skills, make more friends and maybe even contribute to getting the job I want in the future. I also think it will help me grow as a person and step out of my comfort zone, experiencing life thousands of kilometers away from home.

I own a B2 certificate in English, that I worked very hard to get, having focused on English since 3^rd grade. Now I’m currently building further in order to achieve a C1 or C2 certificate before the start of the 11^th grade. Besides English, I’m also talented in Math and computers, which is the reason I chose this high school profile and curricula. I would like my potential experience within the Erasmus project to contribute to this line of development, but I am open to explore other academic fields of study as well.

Thank you for considering my application for the "Erasmus+" project. I’m looking forward to your reply and I appreciate any constructive feedback on this matter.

Sincerely,

Catalin Gorgon

My name is Andrei Fierbinteanu, I live in Bucharest, I am 15 years old and I am a 9th grade student at "Ion Barbu" Theoretical High School, specializing in Social Sciences. I wish to apply for this program because of the opportunity to connect with school environments from other countries such as Turkey, Greece, Portugal, and Spain. I love the English language, football (I’m a fan of FC Barcelona), and I have studied Spanish for two years. Beyond the academic aspects, I am excited about the possibility of interacting with people from different cultures, improving my language skills, and building new friendships. I also wish to apply for this program considering the best practices that will be shared by the partner schools in the project, which will help develop the skills and knowledge needed for the future in an ever-evolving job market. I am convinced that participating in the Erasmus program will be an enriching experience for me as a student in an increasingly interconnected world.

Sincerely,A. Fierbinteanu

During my first year of high school I volunteered for the KIT program , started by "Zi de Bine" , where I had the amazing opportunity to learn many things and meet other teenagers my age.

This year i participated in a class about bullying , hosted by "Save the Children Romania" , in which I also had the possibility to learn and participate in training . In the near future we will go to middle school classrooms and talk with the children about bullying .

Although I'm not studying at an art focused school my passion for creating will never fade , as I enjoy drawing , painting and even DIY-ing my clothes .

Lately I've been more interested in subjects like climate changes and politics and i believe humans should have more empathy towards each other , the creatures living around us and the environment . I also believe racism , homophobia and other kinds of non-reasonable hating should be absolutely isolated from modern society.

Some nice things I can say about myself would be that I'm creative ,sociable and good at supporting people. Team work is also something I enjoy.

I hope joining this project will give me the opportunities I've always dreamt of and forming real connections with people . I'm looking forward to it , if I get accepted .

Yours sincerely,

Nicoleta

My name is Scarlat Samuel Mihai and I am a 16 years old student at the Ion Barbu theorethical highschool in class 11B. I have learned about this program with great excitement, and I believe it represents a unique and invaluable opportunity for my academic and personal development. I am confident that my strong work ethic and passion for learning make me an excellent candidate to represent our school.

There are several key reasons why I am deeply motivated to join this initiative:

Firstly, I am eager to develop essential future skills that go beyond the standard curriculum. I believe that competencies such as critical thinking, digital literacy, and advanced communication in an international context are crucial for success in any future career. The prospect of gaining these skills through a structured, international program like ERASMUS+ is incredibly appealing.

Secondly, I am drawn to the opportunity for cultural exchange and collaboration. The chance to work alongside students from different European countries would allow me to broaden my perspective, challenge my own viewpoints, and develop a deeper understanding of global citizenship. This intercultural dialogue is an experience that cannot be replicated in a traditional classroom setting.

Finally, as a hard-working and passionate individual, I consistently strive to push my own boundaries. I see this program as the perfect challenge to apply my dedication in a new and dynamic environment. I am not only looking to gain theoretical knowledge but also to acquire practical, hands-on experience that will help me grow into a more adaptable and proactive individual.

I am certain that the valuable experience offered by the SKILLS4FUTURE program would be a transformative step in my educational journey. I am fully committed to contributing positively to the program's team and to absorbing all the knowledge and insights it has to offer.

I have a big passion for traveling,I enjoy visiting new countries,learning about different cultures and exploring everything the world has to offer.I have a big dream:To become a lawyer,because i like this ideea,i think it’s a career for future and from childhood i was sure that this is what i want to do in life.Sometimes,I wanted to be a stewardess,thanks to my love for travelling.

Sport is also a big part of my life.I’ve been playing basketball since I was eight years old.During the time of playing this sport,me and my team won the silver medal in the national championship.I also went to Serbia,where I had intensely trainings and I was taught by the best coaches in the country how to become a better version of myself.

Through basketball,I’ve learned the value of teamwork,collaboration,perseverance and enjoying working with others to achieve common goals.

Some of my values are that I am sociable,curios,ambitious,fulfilling any plan I propose to myself.I think Erasmus+ can develop these valors.I want to have a new experience I never had before and doing new memories with new friends.

I believe Erasmus+ project will improve me socially and learns me how to adapt to a new environment.

This project is a opportunity for everyone,but in special for those who are looking to grow personally,like me.

The Erasmus+ program represents a big opportunity, from which I can learn a lot of new things, discover new cultures and make new friends. This project can make me grow both personally and educationally.

I like to involve in extracurricular activities, such as EPAS, The Debate Club, The Journalism Club and also volunteer at ''Save the Children".

I'm looking forward for this program to start and meet you all!

For me, Erasmus+ is not only school activities, but exploring new experiences which might become useful in the future. I believe it's an excellent opportunity to become a better person, to learn something which will be useful in real life, and not only for exams. I am curious to know how we can apply things like teamwork, communication, or creativity, because those are things which are important anywhere, whatever we'll do in the future.

One other thing I'm just so looking forward to is cultural exchange. To greet students from Turkey, Croatia and Lithuania and Portugal means learning new ways of living, new traditions and new histories. My belief is that we all have something special to offer each other, and I couldn't wait to share about Romania, as well—our language, our history, and perhaps some of our traditions. It is like constructing a small community where all of them can come and be appreciated.

I would like to welcome Erasmus+ into my life as I believe it will have doors ajar for me. It will open my eyes to the fact that the world exists beyond the classroom and that learning can be fun, inspirational, and surprising. I would like to meet new individuals, make memories, and develop as a person from this experience.

I wish to enter the project because the opportunity of traveling to different country, where I have the liberty of experiencing the academic studies, culture and connections with different people, is simply too hard to pass. I want to learn about other people from all around Europe and perhaps from all around the globe because I believe it's extremely to cultivate such knowledge.

Not only am I interested in learning about different cultures, but I also wish to use this occasion to scout for possible colleges in diverse fields, since I plan on continuing my studies abroad after I graduate high school.

I am also excited to meet new people and perhaps make some new friends. I am also confident that the skills I have developed by working for Evolve Edu, will come in handy. There, I learned a lot about communicating clearly with people and organizing group projects in which everyone has their fair share of work and in which I make sure everyone is heard and listened to when it comes to feedback or constructive criticism. If you were to ask my friends and colleagues about me, they would most likely tell you that I am an ambitious and determined individual.

By taking part in the Erasmus+ project, I am confident that I would develop certain skills and abilities that would help me later in life, as well as the fact that said skills and abilities would improve my self-development greatly. Not only that, but the opportunity of experiencing the educational systems in other countries would play a big role in my decision of studying abroad and in which country.

I specialize in social sciences and my passions are very much related with my specialization. I like to tell my friends that my first love will always be reading. In books I am able to dive into a reality which is impossible to recreate in my own life, and I am a lover for fantasy. Also, some of my other passions are writing and traveling, since with writing I am able to stare at my thoughts until they fully escape my mind, and with traveling I can welcome new memories in my mind.

I would like to welcome the Erasmus+ project in my current life because I think that it would help me in the future and in the present as well. Meeting new people from all around the world sounds like something I would enjoy, and discovering new cultures from new countries was on my list with things to do in my adolescence. At the same time, I am under the impression that this project will help me gain new perspectives for my future professional life. Right now I don’t see my future path very clearly, but I have a feeling that this experience will help me remove some of the doubts I have at the moment and that it will open new doors for me.

Also, I want to mention that I have been involved in an Erasmus project before and that I have experience in this field.

In the end, I really hope that I will be given the chance to prove what I am capable of in the Erasmus+ project. Thank you for your attention!
