“I am extremely grateful for this opportunity and learnt a lot about Latvia and its uniqueness in the world. This experience has opened up a new path for me in the future.

I am greatly thankful for being a winner and got a chance to join embassy of Latvia. It was an amazing and overwhelming experience for me. It was a great honour for me to meet Ambassador. I was impressed and inspired by his pearls of wisdom. I really enjoyed myself and will never forget this day throughout my life. I wish that I can get a chance to visit embassy once more and expecting more such programs in future.
