Το ονομά μου είναι Μάρκος Χανιώτης. Είμαι 24 χρονών και αυτή τη στιγμή που γρήφω ζω στην Ζυρίχη στην Ελβετία οπου ήρθα για σπουδές το 2019. Παρόλα αυτά γεννήθηκα και μεγάλωσα στην Αθήνα, Ελλάδα μέχρι τα 18. Αυτή τη στιγμή ψάχνω τα βρω πως ακριβώς σκοπεύω να συνεχίσω τις σπουδές μου ενώ παράλληλα παρακολουθώ μαθήματα για data anlaysis. Εκτός αυτού στον ελεύθερό μου χρόνο μου αρέσει να διαβάζω βιβλία, να βλέπω ταινίες και σειρές.
MUST-VISIT
Well the first no brainer answer would of course be the Parthenon in the center of Athens where you get tosee the ruins of an anceint temple and actually look onto the city from above. It really is great but we will not count this. If you then say in the center of Athens you get to find many bars and restaurants and one you should check out is a rooftop bar called Couleur Locale with a great view to the Acropolis, nice food and good cocktails. Another place you have to visit if you are a fun of clubs would be one called Island on the Southern part of Athens and right on top of a beach is one of the best clubs for pretty much everyone. Then lastly I think I willstay in Athens for now and reccomend another bar on the Northern part of the city now called Troxalia which would be great place to taste some of the more peculiar drinks Geece as to offer as is Rkomel oand Oinomelo.
MUST-DO
When it comes to activities the first thing that i have to recommend straight off the bat would be to visit an island. There is very good reason why Greece is famous for its islands. They are beatiful and so many you are bound to find one that is to your liking. However if you are planning on staying on the mainland then you have to check out the ruins. You can start in Athens by visiting Acropolis and its museum, a really great experience and then go on a bit outside of Athens to visit Delphoi which can be combined with a bit of hiking on your way there. Lastly for whoever might be a fan of theatre you have the opportunity to visit the ancient theatre of Athens an actually see a play there

Ensemble nous avons imaginé EMBRACE pour faire l’Europe avec vous, partout.
Unë jam menaxher projektesh në Institutin Shqiptar për Studime Ndërkombëtare dhe gazetar në Tirana Times, ku përpiqem të sjell në vëmendje historitë që shpesh kalojnë pa u vënë re. Së bashku me një mikun tim themeluam P.L.A.N.T., një organizatë e vogël që mbështet zhvillimin rural dhe lidhjen tonë me tokën. Megjithëse kam një pasion për biologjinë molekulare, tani kaluar në punë më praktike, si propozime projektesh dhe shkrime. Ndaj kohën mes Shqipërisë e Italisë, flas disa gjuhë dhe mundohem të kuptoj sfidat e inteligjencës artificiale, demokracisë dhe bujqësisë, pa e marrë vetveten tepër seriozisht.
Hola! Em dic Anaïs i soc d’Andorra. Estudio comunicació i m’apassiona tot el que té a veure amb el món creatiu, especialment la moda, el disseny i la direcció artística. A més, soc una persona molt activa: detesto avorrir-me, així que sempre estic fent alguna cosa nova.Actualment, m’estic entrenant per fer un triatló, perquè m’encanta desafiar-me tant físicament com mentalment. En el meu temps lliure, també m’interessa la fotografia, l’art i descobrir nous llocs o projectes inspiradors. M’encanta combinar la creativitat amb el moviment i no parar mai quieta!
Hey zusammen,ich bin Yanick Tavernier, derzeit schließe ich mein Wirtschaftsstudium an der ESCP ab und bereite mich auf ein spannendes neues Kapitel an der Imperial College Business School in London vor. Geboren in Hongkong und aufgewachsen in verschiedenen Teilen der Welt, habe ich immer eine enge Verbindung zu Europa behalten, insbesondere zu Österreich und Frankreich.Neugierig und ehrgeizig – diese zwei Worte beschreiben, wie ich an jedes Projekt und jede Herausforderung herangehe. Abseits des Studiums begeistere ich mich für Rugby, Kitesurfen, DJing und die Organisation von Club-Events. Neue Menschen kennenzulernen, neue Orte zu entdecken und die Sprünge zu wagen, die andere nicht machen würden, treibt mich an. Ich liebe neue Erfahrungen und bin überzeugt, dass die besten Möglichkeiten denen gehören, die ihre Komfortzone verlassen.Yanick :)
Привет! Меня зовут Юля, и я - белоруска. Школу я проходила в Минске, а университет - в Лозанне, в Швейцарии. После выпуска с бакалавром в бизнес менеджменте (с акцентом в индустрии гостеприимства), мой путь привела меня в Лондон. Тут я работала в финансовом оценивании отелей на протяжении двух лет, а сейчас я занимаюсь предпринимательством в сфере технологий и искусственного интеллекта. Я - фанат разнообразия, креативности и позитива, и мои главные хобби - это путешествовать, быть спортивной, приобретать новые навыки, учить иностранные языки и заниматься развитием бизнесов. Мой девиз - идти по жизни не сдаваясь, метить высоко и верить, что после кучи падений, попыток и усилий, тебя ждет успех.
Salut, moi c'est Victor ! Je suis un grand passionné de bons produits, je travaille d'ailleurs avec ma famille dans la production et la commercialisation de vins BIO. Avant ça, j'ai étudié la gestion et les sciences environnementales à Londres, suite à quoi j'ai travaillé deux ans en Belgique en consultance. En dehors du travail, je suis un grand amateur de sport : tennis, fitness, course à pied… J’aime relever des défis et repousser mes limites, que ce soit pour le plaisir ou dans mes projets professionnels. La musique occupe aussi une place importante dans ma vie. En tant que guitariste et chanteur, j’aime créer des moments de partage à travers la musique...
Pozdrav! Ja sam Maya, imam 24 godine i jako sam uzbuđena što sam su-osnivačica Embrace-a za Hrvatsku, a posebno za naš predivan Zadar!Evo nešto malo više o meni –Vrlo sam aktivna osoba i strastvena sam oko svega ‘fitness i wellness’ related, pa me često možete pronaći u teretani ili na pilates treninzima. Također obožavam putovanja, društvene mreže, kuhanje, shopping i pratiti najnovije trendove (ipak sam samo cura✨). No, ništa se ne može usporediti s danom provedenim uz kavu pokraj Zadarske obale 😉Što se tiče mog obrazovanja, nakon što sam završila International Business na EFRI-ju, stekla sam titulu MSc iz Business Communications na WU u Beču i LUISS u Rimu. Ovije su mi dvije europske prijestolnice potaknule razneeee poslovne ambicije od kojih su mi marketing i ‘employer branding’ najzanimljivije.Uvijek sam težila tome da ostanem vjerna sebi i da ‘embrace-am’ sebe kakvu jesam, i nadam se da će vas ovaj napitak inspirirati koliko i mene🤍
Здрасти! Казвам се Елизабет, от България съм но живея в Париж от вече почти 13 години. Работя в козметичната индустрия от осем години, като в момента съм отговорна за международното развитие на марката Rabanne – позиция, която ми позволява да съчетавам страстта си към стратегията, козметиката и работата с различни пазари и култури. Обичам да пътувам, да уча нови неща и да се впускам в разнообразни проекти, които ме вдъхновяват в ежедневието. Говоря пет езика и истински се наслаждавам на комуникацията с хора от различни държави – тя ми дава перспектива и ме свързва с нови идеи и мирогледи. Харесвам летните залези, спонтанните разговори и моментите с любимите ми хора и моето куче Сенджи.
Γεια σας! Ονομάζομαι Χρυσταλένη και κατάγομαι από την Κύπρο. Έχω σπουδάσει Αγγλική Γλώσσα και Φιλολογία και ολοκληρώνω το μεταπτυχιακό μου στις Διεθνείς Σχέσεις και Διπλωματία στο Sciences Po Paris. Μου αρέσει πολύ ο τομέας της επικοινωνίας, οι ξένες γλώσσες και και πάντα ψάχνω ευκαιρίες για δημιουργικές συνεργασίες σε διεθνείς ομάδες!
I'm a student living the Copenhagen life :) I study business, language and culture at CBS. I really love to be active, go out on a friday night but what I love the most is sports! I fell in love with climibing last year and it's almost as if I live in the climbing gym now :) I also enjoy playing football, rugby and I am a huge fan of adrenaline!

Hello! I'm James and I am a European Studies student from Dublin (Trinity College) currently on Erasmus exchange in Paris! I love studying cultural history and languages, and connecting with people from different cultures all across Europe! I enjoy hiking, sea swimming, and skiing, the latter of which takes jetting off to the continent for good snow!
Ciao, io sono Matteo!Sono nato nel sud Italia, sono cresciuto al nord, al confine con la Svizzera, e da allora ho viaggiato parecchio - tra Regno Unito, Danimarca, Singapore e ora Parigi.Oggi lavoro da Carbon Maps (un software SaaS), dove accompagniamo gli attori del settore agroalimentare a comprendere e ridurre meglio il loro impatto ambientale, soprattutto a livello di prodotto, ingredienti e packaging. È un tema che mi appassiona molto, perché si trova all’incrocio tra tecnologia, sostenibilità e realtà del campo. Fuori dal lavoro, sono un grande appassionato di cucina, sport di squadra (calcio, padel, rugby…) e, soprattutto, di incontri in giro per il mondo. La vita mi ha dato la possibilità di vivere con persone di culture molto diverse, e devo tantissimo all’Europa e ai suoi cittadini. Mi ha dato molto più di quanto io sia riuscito a restituire finora - inclusa una vita migliore per me e per la mia famiglia.È per questo che sono particolarmente orgoglioso di essere uno dei co-fondatori europei di Embrace, un progetto che aiuta l’Europa (e il mondo) a conoscere meglio i nostri Paesi, le nostre tradizioni e i nostri sapori. Viva l’Europa e viva Embrace!
Përshëndetje et Bonjour ! My name is Valmir, I'm 18 and I'm a student in Sciences Po Paris. I have one main passion in life : getting involved. Fascinated by geopolitics and the challenges of building the EU, I've been able to take part in several Europe-related events and I want to work towards an increasingly connected Europe, where citizens play a leading role. As a citizen of both Kosovo and France, I enjoy a dual culture that enriches my soul and enables me to campaign for the future integration of the Western Balkans into the EU! I already speak Albanian, French and English, and I'm currently learning German, as I'd like to work in national and European institutions in the future, so that my commitment can have a more concrete impact! In my personal time, I love reading biographies of great figures in our shared history, watching documentaries, playing the Çifteli (a traditional Albanian instrument) and travelling to discover Europe, from East to West and North to South. Embrace is a project in which I recognize my values, and I would give anything to contribute to its success!
Brīvajā laikā man patīk spēlēt šahu un nodarboties ar boulderingu. Studēju biznesu un nākotne vēlos veidot un vadīt kompānijas.
Hoi! Ik ben Mirthe, kom uit Noord-Nederland, en heb de afgelopen 4 jaar voor mijn studie in het westen van Nederland gewoond. Daarna ben ik voor de afwisseling naar München verhuisd en werk hier nu als M&A consultant – iets wat zo makkelijk is binnen Europa, omdat je zonder visum gewoon van land kunt wisselen. Desondanks blijft Amsterdam mijn favoriete stad en ik zou er graag weer naartoe terugkeren. In mijn vrije tijd loop ik graag hard, samen met mijn eigen runclub hier: Run and Chill. Kom vooral eens langs als je in de buurt bent!
Cześć, jestem Jonatan! Mam 22 lata i mieszkam w Warszawie. Studiuję metody ilościowe w ekonomii – kończę studia w tym roku. Trenuję rzut oszczepem i dyskiem, chociaż ostatnio wychodzi z tego głównie siłownia ;). Gram też na gitarze akustycznej w zespole Thalia – gramy indie rocka. Dla zainteresowanych zapraszam na naszego Spoti😎 Ostatnio zacząłem pracę w firmie konsultingowej, która zajmuje się wdrażaniem i serwisem systemów ERP, wcześniej pracowałem jakis czas jako księgowy. Lubię też podróżować, dobrze zjeść i spędzać aktywnie czas, do zobaczenia!
Nascida e criada no Porto, cresci entre o mar e o ambiente multicultural da escola francesa. Em Paris, fiz uma dupla licenciatura em Direito e Economia, mas foi durante o meu gap year que percebi a minha vocação pela comunicação e pelas relações internacionais. Tive a oportunidade de explorar esse caminho nos Jogos Olímpicos e Paralímpicos de Paris 2024, onde pude integrar a vertente criativa através da fotografia e do design gráfico.Após uma experiência na Autoridade Europeia para a Segurança Alimentar, em Parma, estou de volta a Paris, agora na Autoridade Europeia dos Mercados Financeiros, onde combino as áreas que mais me movem: comunicação e relações internacionais.Apesar de adorar a vida em Paris, continuo a achar que não há nada como acabar o dia a ver um pôr do sol à beira-mar em Portugal.
Я — арт-директор с художественным бекграундом, отвечаю за весь визуал в рекламном агентстве. Вдохновение — мой двигатель: я люблю быть в потоке идей, ощущений, ритма тела и мыслей. Также я фанатка веллнеса — забота, баланс и тонкая сонастройка с собой и миром. Я обожаю путешествия, потому что они всегда дарят много впечатлений, вкусов, запахов, встреч, созерцания природы и остаются с тобой навсегда самым ценным — воспоминаниями
Salut! Mă numesc Dominic, am 23 de ani și sunt din București, România. După ce am terminat facultatea în Olanda cu specializarea Inteligență Artificială, am decis să mă întorc în România și să continui această cale cu un master. Momentan lucrez pe partea de vânzări într-un magazin specializat în comicuri, boardgames și figurine. Îmi place sa îmbin cunoștințele pe care le-am dobândit pe partea de produse cu interacțiunea cu clienții și să încerc să le fac ziua mai bună.Îmi place sportul, baschetul, am multe hobby-uri care intră în categoria de nerd (anime, jocuri video, colecționarea de figurine) și îmi place mult natura și să petrec timp cu prietenii. România este plină de păduri, dealuri și cetăți ascunse pe care le străbat singur sau cu alți prieteni.
Zdravo, ja sam Lara. Sportiva, dinamična i uvek spremna za novu avanturu, ono što me najbolje opisuje je odlučnost da svaku ideju — bilo jednostavnu, bilo potpuno neobičnu — pretočim u stvarnost. Da projekti o kojima se priča postanu projekti koji se žive. Zaljubljenik u umetnost, filmsku režiju i kreiranje univerzuma — brendova, priča ili potpuno imaginarnih svetova — volim ono što ima karakter, identitet i emociju. Iza mog temperamenta i radoznalosti često stoji disciplina i ozbiljnost koje možda ne očekujete na prvi pogled — ali koje prave razliku. Odrasla sam u porodičnoj agenciji za marketing i evente, okružena projektima i klijentima od malih nogu. Danas, ništa me ne raduje više nego da se upustim u lepe projekte, da dam maksimum od sebe i da ih zajedno sa pravim ljudima pretvorim u stvarnost — uz energiju i entuzijazam koji mi dolaze potpuno prirodno.
Zdravím! Volám sa Anna a nedávno som ukončila magisterské štúdium v zahraničí – MSc Digital Marketing and Data Analytics. Momentálne žijem v Londýne, kde pracujem ako inštruktorka lyžovania. Popri tom si aktívne hľadám prácu v oblasti marketingu alebo dátovej analytiky. V Spojenom kráľovstve žijem už piaty rok, no vždy sa veľmi rada vraciam domov na Slovensko – v zime kvôli lyžovaniu, v lete kvôli horám a rodine. Milujem prírodu, pohyb, čerstvý vzduch a slovenské hory – vyrastala som pod Nízkymi Tatrami, takže mi sú srdcu blízke. Som aktívna a zvedavá, mám rada beh, lyže, maľovanie, knihy a neustále učenie sa novým veciam. Cestovanie a objavovanie kultúr ma napĺňa – považujem za výnimočné byť súčasťou rozmanitej Európskej únie. Verím v rovnováhu medzi pracovným a osobným životom a vždy sa snažím rásť – ako profesionálne, tak aj osobnostne.
Jag är född 1998 i en liten stad som heter Norrköping ca 2 timmar från Stockholm. Just nu pluggar jag en master i HR på Linköpings Universitet. Jag bor med min pojkvän Axel sedan 6 år och vi träffades i Arkösund där vi båda har sommarställe. Där tillbringar vi helst vår lediga tid då vi har mycket kompisar där. Vi tycker om att segla, vindsurfa, paddla, cykla och hitta på roliga saker med vänner! På min fritid dansar jag och umgås gärna med familj. Jag har 6 syskon och 7 syskon-barn. Jag uppskattar att resa och jag har även ett stort intresse för film! Nu i sommar ska jag och min kille flytta till Stockholm för praktik och jobb.
Hoi zäme ! Moi, c’est Zoé, je viens de Genève (c’est en Romandie, la partie francophone de la Suisse !). Je travaille sur de nombreux projets variés, souvent liés à la circularité dans la mode ou à l’hôtellerie — eh oui, la Suisse est connue pour son chocolat, mais aussi pour son sens de l’hospitalité ! En ce moment, je travaille pour une maison de ventes aux enchères horlogères (cliché !!) et nous organisons actuellement notre première vente de maroquinerie.
Jmenuji se Jonáš, je mi 23 let a jsem z Prahy. Vystudovala jsem bakalářský obor behaviorální a sociální vědy a v současné době pracuji jako asistent pedagoga a učitel tělesné výchovy na Montessori základní škole v Praze. Mými vášněmi jsou sporty, zejména kulturistika a surfování (pokud je to možné), objevování nových kultur, zejména těch z LATAM, a navazování nových osobních kontaktů se skvělými lidmi. Mluvím česky, anglicky a španělsky a perlivé nápoje jsou moje slabost, ať už je to pivo nebo cocacola.
Merhaba, ben Defne! Doğma büyüme İstanbulluyum, daha doğrusu Cihangir’liyim. Fıruzağa’da güzel kahve peşinde koşarak, Tomtom’un eskicilerinde kaybolarak, Çukurcuma’nın binalarına hayran kalarak ve İstiklal’de sokak müzisyenlerini dinleyerek büyüdüm. Şimdilerde Paris’te yaşıyorum, uluslararası yönetim ve diplomasi üzerine yüksek lisans yapıyorum, daha doğrusu bitirmeye çalışıyorum. Kafeden kafeye hoplamak, lezzetli restoranlar bulmak, parklarda piknik yapmak, bol bol sergi gezmek, güneş altında saatlerce yatmak, müzikle iç içe yaşamak, şarkı söylemek, dans etmek, rüzgâr sörfü yapmak ve hep gülmek hayatta en keyif aldığım şeyler :)
Привіт, мене звати Анастасія. Я виросла у Києві, у місті народження моєї мами. Декілька років тому, я почала навчання у Швейцарії на архітектора. Паралельно з навчанням, я займаюся фехтуванням. На протязі кількох років, я представляла Україну на міжнародній арені. Коли в мене все ж таки знаходиться вільний час, мені подобається грати в волейбол чи теніс з друзями. Я також дуже люблю смачно поїсти, тому тестувати нові рецепти також входить до списку моїх хобі.
I am 22 years old and currently live and work part-time as an executive assistant in London having finished my undergraduate degree at Durham University in the Summer of 2024. However, in August 2025 I plan to move to Japan to work as an assistant English teacher which is an exciting prospect. When not at work I do my best to play football in the evenings or catch up with friends dotted around London which includes going to restaurants, pubs or quite often the cinema. I am also trying to read more since moving back to London having bought so many books over the years and never having read the majority of them. I also self-study Japanese when time allows for it, having studied it for the most part of my time at university and having lived in Tokyo for eleven months as a part of my degree.
Pour connaître la suite avec nous ;) Max max 4 e-mails/an.
