Firstly, I want to thank everyone I have met during the project. It has been an incredible experience in one's life to have such amazing friends from around the world. In this project, we learned a lot about living in diversity. Experiencing it for ourselves, we understood the differences that could not have been imagined. Furthermore, after the project has ended and as time passes by, it is also tangible that the friendship between EP, OC and the buddies still remains and it even becomes stronger. You just got yourself a group of friends for life!
