“People used to think that Erasmus was just for rich people, for brilliant minds, and it’s really not. There’s something for everyone, for every country, for every kind of practice. So don’t hesitate on searching!”
Pedro - Brazil

“Living in Spain is an experience that truly transformed my life. I didn’t just learn a new language – I learned a new way of seeing life. It gave me confidence, independence and friends from all over the world. After coming back to Brazil I felt the spirit to create opportunities for other students, and now I’m part of an OCEANS and Erasmus+ funded development project to support students from urban centres.”

“I am part of the Erasmus generation – united in diversity and not afraid to take a leap into the unknown. We enrich society through international mobility and create bridges between Latin America, the Caribbean and the EU. Join this movement: go on Erasmus, because once Erasmus, always Erasmus!”
Elizabeth - Guatemala
Network: ESAA
“Doing my master’s through Erasmus+ was a life-changing experience. Now, as we are in the process of forming the Association of Alumni for Guatemala, our goal is to share these programmes so others can have the opportunity to study, have cultural exchange and also strengthen the bridges between Europe and Latin America.”
