EUMIND GROUP 3: HEALTHY LIFE

REFLECTIONS
The EUMIND journey has been incredible and memorable. It
started off with a simple introduction video and from there, the
rollercoaster began. With highs like the first online meeting to
lows like the tedious and time consuming interviews and the
back and forth with our Dutch counterparts to compare
research. All of these moments were unforgettable. In this
document, the members of Group 3: Healthy Life will explain
what they took away from this program and recount their
experiences.

Eumind has been an experience of a kind. I never thought of communicating with people from
another country so well and with so much ease but eumind enabled me to not only improve my
communicational skills but also taught me various other skills. Conversing with people on the other
end inspite of being on an online platform was a completely different feeling altogether. Learning
about their lifestyle and their likes and dislikes showed me how different but the same people are.
In the last few months I've looked forward to each and every meeting we've had and have enjoyed
every minute of it. It was fascinating to know how differently from us people our age live there.
However , the regret in my mind was that we were unfortunately not able to physically go and
experience such a wonderful experience. Nonetheless eumind was an amazing experience and I
learnt a lot through this programme.

THANK
YOU!
