I am studying graphic design at high school, and in my free time I enjoy drawing and playing video games. I heard about Petrklíč’s activities from a friend at school and decided to sign up because I wanted to meet new people.

I went on my first exchange with Petrklíč on October 2, 2025. What I enjoyed most was meeting people from different cultures and talking about the differences between their countries and mine. I was pleasantly surprised by how many nice and open-minded people participated in the project and how many of them I got to know better.

The moment that stuck in my memory the most was night swimming with participants from Latvia – an experience I will never forget! Thanks to Petrklíč, I met a lot of new people and made some great friends.

I think everyone should try an Erasmus exchange with Petrklíč at least once. For me, it was a very enriching experience and I met people with whom I will stay in touch for a long time.

💬 Message for others: If you are hesitating whether to go – definitely go! I was also hesitant at first, but in the end it was one of the best weeks ever.
