Participating in the Youth Summit was a very rewarding and exciting experience.

The first reason is because I had never traveled outside my country, and it was quite an adventure, getting to know new places, new people, new flavors, smells, etc. I liked traveling a lot, it was quite a challenge but it was broken in the best way.

The second reason is due to the intercultural environment in which our meetings take place in Bali, meeting so many people from different countries of the world will give you a feeling that a multiplicity of things are happening in the world, and with it, different realities that exist within the group. From this, I am better able to understand that the world is both complex and simple. Also, I was able to meet other that help me to see and understand different views of things.

Lastly, the bonds that were formed in the short time we were together have continued to this day, I still talk to Kevin and Gradi, and if I hadn't attended the summit, I wouldn't have met them and the other fantastic young people like Eloge and Sintya that participated with us.

It was a very rewarding experience! I also thank everyone who helped organize the summit and facilitate this youth meeting, which will undoubtedly leave a mark on me for the rest of my life.
