Statement

I always admired open minded people. People who had a quality to accept and adopt values from other cultures and who could think out of their own cultural box.

My experience of living and studying abroad has transformed me into a citizen of the world. I believe that every young person should be encouraged to have a richer multicultural exchange, something that is only possible when one is on the move. Therefore, I consider myself as priviledged to be Croatian Ambassador in the Youth on the Move campaign.
