Discover your future: time for a experience abroad!
The curiosity of new experiences is great, especially among young people. This has taken advantage of Eurodesk in Steinfurt and organizes a variety of events as part of the “Time to Move” campaign. These information events are aimed at everyone who is interested in voluntary services, work & travel or student exchange. Loud Radio RST If the first dates are already fixed: Interested parties can find out more on an online information evening via Zoom on October 21 and 28, 2025. If you prefer to come by personally, you have the opportunity on October 23, 2025 in Steinfurt and on October 30, 2025 in Tecklenburg.
In addition, there are the so -called "Talcative Thursdays" every Thursday in October. Here, live webinars are planned in which participants tell about their own experience abroad. A particularly informative evening will take place on October 16, 2025. Eurodesk offers free and neutral information about a wide range of topics that have to do with stays abroad, including voluntary services, au pair programs and internships.
European opportunities for young people
Participation in the events is possible for young people between the ages of 13 and 30. The participants come from many different European countries, such as Austria, Germany, France and Switzerland. This variety makes the exchange program particularly exciting. Participants must adhere to certain rules, but they can be sure that they receive valuable information for their next step abroad.
A particularly interesting opportunity at international level is the Voluntary Social Year (FSJ) abroad, which has established itself as a popular option. As on the website of the Federal voluntary service can be read by a FSJ abroad social, cultural or ecological tasks that not only promote personal development, but also have international understanding appreciated. The FSJ can be completed in any country in the world, but only through approved sending organizations.
The prerequisites for an application are very clear: you should be at least 17 and at most 26 years old, have a completed school training and have openness and engagement. Even if it often seems that the costs for a stay abroad are often not fully covered by state funding, the participants receive pocket money and the basic living costs such as accommodation and meals are usually covered.
Why should you choose a foreign adventure?
In addition to the noticeable aspect of adventure, such a stay also brings experience and possible professional advantages. Faster than expected, the participants can gain valuable first professional experiences and establish new friendships. In addition, the entitlement to child benefit remains during the FSJ, which is particularly important for young adults.
Whether it is the exciting exchange with the same age, immersing immersion in other cultures or learning new skills - the "Time to Move" initiative offers prospective discoverers the opportunity to expand their horizons and take part in exciting projects.
