My Christams holiday wasn’t particular, except for the fact that I found myself in Malta. I spent my Christmas holiday together with my girlfriend, even though inside of me I was feeling like I should’ve spent it with the people from the building where I live in. We formed a really beautiful friendship and it was the only occasion when all of us could’ve spent those holidays together. Except for this feeling of not having taken the right decision, I spent my holidays going around Malta, showing my girlfriend how beautiful this little island is. Spending time with someone from my pre-Erasmus life made me go back to my pre-Erasmus self, I realized during that brief time that I could never go back to my old life. Erasmus gave me the freedom of being fully myself AND I LOVE IT! Here in Malta I found happiness, peace, friendship and I found myself.

Young, motivated and eager to find out what there is in Europe for them. Ilaria, Thomas, Valentin and Elisa have been selected for #ErasmusPro, the new Erasmus designed to promote "long-term" vocational training experiences. Thanks to the APRO Formazione project "WAVES - Sail towards your future", Ilaria, Thomas, Valentin and Elisa are doing their #ErasmusPro in Malta for 6 months, from October 2019 to the beginning of April 2020. Each week, in turn, they will send us their impressions.
