“My support for the EU is deeply personal, and I have consolidated it through study in the fields of International and European Relations. Having lived in several countries, I experienced firsthand how today we are more mobile, interconnected, and exposed to different cultures, yet many countries still retain a restrictive idea of how individuals should integrate into their societies. To me, the EU means the ability to cross borders, experience new countries and cultures, and find a sense of belonging in this interconnected world.”
