As you know, I am miles away from nowadays school and college systems, but since I know you I am really paying much more attention to the news about school and college costs in Germany and also here in Spain. It has all changed so much, it has really become very expensive to give your children the best possible start in their lives. Oh dear, my parents didn’t even have to pay for our schoolbooks then, nowadays a decent education seems to be for the riches only 🙁 I am wondering if there are scholarships aids here in Europe as well. This is actually a lot of money you can win, what a great help if you know how to … so worth sharing and spreading your knowledge! I get always so fascinated by your images 🙂
Thanks, Klaudia! I would love to know more about how students are helped with college funding in other countries. I really appreciate your sharing my content and tips. Have a fabulous day! 🙂
