"From the period of 6th of June until 16th of June I was part of the Erasmus+ project called “You(th) on the labour market” in Predeal, Romania.
55 young people from 9 countries - Bulgaria 🇧🇬, Romania 🇷🇴, Greece 🇬🇷, Italy 🇮🇹, Spain 🇪🇸, Poland 🇵🇱, Portugal 🇵🇹, Czech Republic 🇨🇿, Turkiye 🇹🇷 gathered together for an unforgettable experience.
The project was focused on youth employment as it was aimed to address the challenges and enhance opportunities in that area. The participants implemented a lot of different activities that helped us to develop the competencies needed to succeed in the job market, including technical skills, soft skills, digital skills and others.
Thanks to this youth exchange we learned how to improve our employability such as resume writing, interview skills and other job search techniques. We gained some practical experience as we transitioned into the workforce acting like employees and employers.
The Bulgarian team and me as a team leader agree that engaging in the project activities definitely educated us on the topic of youth employment. I think that empowering youth encourages their participation in any kind of initiatives and it builds a generation of innovative and socially responsible future leaders.
Apart from that, Erasmus+ projects are not just about learning, they also emphasize creating an enjoyable and enriching experience for the participants. We had the opportunity to experience new cultures, traditions, cuisines, learn local dances, explore new cities and natural wonders as well as party, socialize, make friends and build lasting connections in a fun atmosphere.
Thank you for the opportunity to be part of this experience." - Цветелина Ушева

"From 06.06 to 16.06 I had the joy of participating in the youth exchange InnoVenture: You(th) on the Labour Market in Predeal, Romania together with 55 participants from 🇧🇬, 🇷🇴, 🇹🇷, 🇬🇷, 🇵🇹, 🇪🇸, 🇵🇱, 🇨🇿 , 🇮🇹 .
From this project, I gained practical and theoretical knowledge about good practices in the job application process, presenting myself in interviews and the labor market situation for young people in different parts of Europe 🇪🇺. Additionally, I got to participate in tasks that challenged my creativity and changed my perspective about my capabilities.
Besides the useful activities regarding youth employability, I was also fortunate enough to meet great people who I now call friends, learn about their culture, try their food, and even learn some traditional dances.
These 10 days were filled with memories that will forever be dear to my heart and experiences that helped me grow as an individual.
I will be forever grateful for all the laughs, happy tears, and friendships this project brought me, it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience❗️
Special thank you to Initiative Sociale for organizing this amazing project and for making Predeal feel like home! And thank you Ново Общество/ New Society for providing me with the opportunity to take part in this youth exchange❤️" - Калина Шагова

"On 06.06.2024 a project called "InnoVenture: You(th) on the Labour Market" started with 56 participants in Predeal Romania 🇷🇴. I was super excited 😁 because i was going to leant more about the topic of the project , meet so many people and become friends with them and participate in the interesting and fun activities. But it means so much more for me now ☺️! That time was the best 10 days of my entire life i wish to go back and relive them over an over again! On the first day we played games made for us to get to know others better and remember their names. Then we got devided into 5 groups of 10 and we had tasks to find places and take cool and creative pictures. That way we got closer, looked around the beautiful landskape of Predeal and talked with the natives. Everyday we had coffee breaks ☕️🍪🍦🧁 and energizer games. For breakfast we had the right to pick what to eat and for lunch and dinner we got the opportunity to try traditional romanian dishes 🥘🍛🍲! During the day we had so many interesting and cool games and activities prepared for us and during the night we partied hard 🥳. On the 5th day we went on a study visit to Draculas castle 🧛♂️🦇 it was majectic and then to Brasov where we spent most of the day doing our group tasks. It was the best day ever ! Every three days we had cultural night 3 countries for each night. Every country represented us their culture 🇷🇴🇧🇬🇮🇹🇵🇹🇵🇱🇪🇸🇹🇷🇬🇷🇨🇿 and then games, dances and of course traditional food and drink the best part ! One of the nights was the Oscars night 🏆 where certain people got oscars for their role in the short film 📽🎞🎬 we did which was realy cool and amaizing activitie by the way! The last day was the most emotional day 😭 there was the touch game, the revealing of our secret friends whose task was to give presents 🎁 to other people and the drawings of us we got drawn from the others then we wrote on the back of it wishes and sweet messages and we got out T-shirts 👕 signed from the others. On 16.06.2024 our dream ended with last hugs 🤗🫂 and sweet goodbyes." - Jaklin Koseva
"Me and my sister Jaklin Koseva applied for an Erasmus+ project. And it was the best decision ever!!! 😊❤️
I met so many new people that i became really good friends with, I learned alot of new and important things from them. And of course I got out of my comfort zone and learned new things about myself and about the people around me. I think this experience was the best thing that happened in my life till now and I will never forget it neither will I forget the amazing people that I was with on this Erasmus+ project. ☺️

It was lots of fun making it and hearing about the information from each country. Also we had more games and interesting conversation that made made us become closer ☺️. We also did movies 🎬 about themes like " Better opportunities and Imigration to the EU" , "Summer jobs" and many more.

At the end we were not only young people who became friends in the project , we were one big family! ❤️🥹" - Maria Koseva

The activities everyday were aimed at being informative, practical and useful in our lives. This 10 days I have gained not only new confidence for applying for jobs on the labour market, I have learned skills for achieving better results.
Besides the main topic of the project, we were able to learn new and interesting facts about 🇧🇬🇹🇷🇬🇷🇵🇱🇨🇿🇷🇴🇵🇹🇪🇸🇮🇹 and try great food.
Predeal was an amazing place where I was able to be surrounded by beautiful nature and get to know incredible group of people.

The place, the topic of this project, the memories and the friends made along the way are going to stay with me forever!❤️
