The Bold Farras

With this episode, we would like to explore a very nice opportunity that falls within the Erasmus + Umbrella, so to speak.

The Youth Exchanges are mobility projects addressed to young people (people from 13 to 30 years old) coming from different countries in Europe and that give the chance to meet up in groups and to work and live together for a limited period of time, which can range between 5 to 21 days.

With this episode, we would like to inaugurate a new format, which is the interview, where we invite guests to bring their insights and stories about various travel, study opportunities abroad that they went through.

In this episode, we are going to interview Silvia Zancarli who will tell us about her experience abroad in Germany as a volunteer in a European Solidarity Corps project.

Welcome back to Part 2 of episode 3. We decided to split into two-parts because we felt that just 1 episode wasn’t enough, so we decided to explore the topic from a different angle.

In this fourth episode we are going to focus on the soft skills and techniques you should consider having in your luggage before boarding on a new journey somewhere.
