“We are changing our way of thinking”
“We are changing our way of thinking”
– Vanessa, PLACE Mentor
When Vanessa learned about the opportunity to become a PLACE mentor for Samsoor, she saw it as an opportunity to share and grow in a new way. Samsoor, a young man from Afghanistan who taught himself spoken French using only a series of Youtube videos in a mere 5 months, defied the face of migration that had been filling her newsfeed for the past 4 years. Now an active part of the PLACE community, she recommends anyone looking to change their way of thinking through discovery, mutual learning and fascinating conversations to join the adventure.
