11 days without the Internet has passed finally. To get this blog going let me start with clarifying what I am actually doing here, in Baku.
The program I'm here with is called WEBB - Whole Europe Beyond Borders. It's one of the three European Commission's programs I am familiar with; the other two are SIGMA and the 'regular' Erasmus.
Ok, so what Erasmus really is, you would ask? Here's the thing:
Erasmus is an exchange opportunity for European college students. It doesn't have many requirements; the main thing is that you need to be a student and need to maintain the status through your whole exchange. It's a way of showing no borders in Europe and outside of it with a little of financial aid. What's the difference between the three programs I mentioned before? Regular Erasmus is what everyone is familiar with - it's an exchange among EU universities. SIGMA and WEBB are Erasmus Mundus projects which give you a better financial backup and cover regions of Balkans and Caucasus.
For more information about the projects please find the websites:
