EUROPE

Hello everybody, this time I would like to write about the European Union. The European Union (EU) is an economic and political union of 27 member countries, located primarily in Europe. Committed to regional integration, the EU was established by the Treaty of Maastricht on 1 November 1993 upon the foundations of the European Communities. I didn’t know all that, but I have just found it in wikipedia. But what means Europe for teenagers?

Europe has a lot of advantages for us. There is a programme called Erasmus. Erasmus is a student exchange programme established in 1987. Erasmus is a great opportunity to go to other countries and learn those cultures. We can also meet people for other countries, learn other languages… the only disadvantage I find is that you can travel with the programme only the last year of your career.

Finally, I think the European Union is a big advance to a world of peace and tolerance. The frontiers between countries have fall down, we can help countries that have sunk in black holes, like Greece or Spain; and the most important, we can learn and learn to tolerate other cultures. Thanks for reading, until next time.
