Some experiences stay with you long after they end ✨ Kultur Kiddos Erasmus+ youth exchange in Câmara de Lobos, Madeira was truly one of them 🌍❤️
As a project manager at @futuretraininternational & co-facilitator with all participants, I had the privilege of witnessing something beautiful unfold day after day: complete strangers from different countries, cultures, and stories slowly becoming a real international community 🤝
Through dialogue 🗣️, creativity 🎭, vulnerability 💭, laughter 😂, long reflections 🌙, nature 🌿, and shared experiences, borders and walls disappeared and genuine human connections were born. To this day I am writing this, we are still talking to eachothers, meeting and planning future gatherings!
Beyond the workshops and activities, what made this project unforgettable was the feeling behind it all, the safe space we created together.
A space where people felt seen, heard, accepted, and free to simply be themselves ✨
And when that happens… something magical grows 🌱💫
I leave this experience with deep gratitude for every conversation, every smile, every challenge, and every person who shared a piece of their heart throughout this journey 🙏❤️
These are the moments that remind me why youth work matters so much to me and to every young person who need this the most!
Thank you very much for all the love, care and messages you shared with me, and for sure we will meet again 🤗❤️
This project was financed by the European Union through the Erasmus+ programme.

Ce séjour restera gravé comme une expérience exceptionnelle, bien au-delà d’un simple voyage. D’un point de vue culturel, il nous a permis de découvrir d’autres façons de vivre, de penser et de partager. Chaque rencontre, chaque lieu visité, chaque échange nous a enrichis et ouverts davantage au monde❤️🫶🏽#erasmus #kulturkiddos #echange #culture #madere
Grateful beyond words 🙏✨
A heartfelt THANK YOU to all the amazing participants of the Kultur Kiddos Erasmus+ Youth Exchange project. Your energy, creativity, and dedication made this journey truly special. Each of you contributed to something meaningful, and it wouldn’t have been the same without you.

Being on the road has become more than just my job 🚆🌍, but my way of growing and exploring myself more ✨
On the road, we see thousands of individuals 👥, that could have been you, in the life of millions of others… yes, think of it again 🤯 Crazy!
Hitting the road by train has a completely different taste 🚄💫, it also reminds me of my first train trips I did with Mito and the school of acrobatics for scout campings around the country back in 2011 in Morocco 🇲🇦
I am so blessed and thankful for Allah 🤲❤️ to give me such freedom to explore and see His beauty on this planet 🌎✨
Everything comes and goes… life comes and goes ⏳, but time, when it goes, it never comes back ⌛
So every opportunity we have ahead, being alive, able to breathe 🌿, is a priceless blessing to be thankful to Allah 🙏 and have a smile on your face 😊 and be kind to strangers (friends you haven’t met yet)

In this day, may Allah bless the soul of both my dear teacher, friend and life coach Abdelhamid Akhazzan (Mito) on the right side of the picture, and my dear friend and uncle to my work colleague Abdelilah Jebari, next to Mito. 🤲✨
في هذا اليوم، نسأل الله أن يبارك في روح أستاذي العزيز، وصديقي، ومدربي في الحياة عبد الحميد أخزان (ميطو) على يمين الصورة، وكذلك صديقي العزيز وعم رئيسي في العمل عبد الإله جباري بجانب ميطو 🤍🕊️
May Allah bless both of them and grant them Jannah InshAllah ❤️
اللهم بارك فيهما وارزقهما الجنة إن شاء الله 🤲🌙
To Allah we belong, and to Him we shall return. 🤲
إنا لله وإنا إليه راجعون 🤲
🚆✨ Meet the International Projects Team
To close our Meet our Team series, we introduce our International Team — the people who connect Framtidståget with partners and young people across Europe and beyond. 🌍
This team works with Erasmus+ projects, the European Solidarity Corps (ESC), solidarity projects, and other EU-funded initiatives that create opportunities for learning, volunteering, and international cooperation, mainly dedicated to young people with fewer opportunities ❤️
✈️ Through these programs, the team coordinates youth exchanges, training courses, volunteering opportunities, and international partnerships, while also supporting young people as a hosting and sending organization in the ESC program.
Their work helps young people with fewer opportunities travel, learn new skills, build international friendships, and become active citizens, while strengthening collaboration between organizations across countries. 🤝
Through international cooperation, we continue building bridges between communities and creating opportunities that go beyond borders. 🌍✨
