First of all, what is an European Voluntary Service (EVS)? It is an activity included in the Youth in Action Programme of European Union. Open to all young people aged 18 to 30, EVS gives you the chance to work abroad in the project you like the most.

So now, it's time to introduce ourselves:

PAOLA (first on the left side of the picture): Italian. She just finished her studies of Politics.

ESZTER: From Hungary, she is a journalist.

SABELA: From Spain. She is also a journalist and the most veteran EVS!

BEATRIZ: From Spain. A journalist too!, and student of Law.

MARÍA: She is also from Spain, but she is not in the picture because she just arrived from The Netherlands. She studied Arts.

The image shows our first task together: we painted the wall on where, some days later, we pricked the AEYC badges. Maybe you have seen it these days in Steen or in Groenplaats, did we do a good job?

But painting walls is not our only task. We are involved with almost all the activities of Antwerp European Youth Capital and we take part in many workshops in different museums, youth centres, etc. So, if you are planning to participate in some of these activities, perhaps you will meet us!
