Romanian national Roxana Mironescu joined her sister in Luxembourg in 2012 after completing her studies in Aberdeen. She has since worked for the local media and is now pursuing a communications degree at the University of Luxembourg in the country she now calls home. What brought you to Luxembourg?

This is an article published a few days ago in the local press of St. Hilaire de Riez (in the region of Vendée, western France) talking about the cultural exchange that took place between ROMANIA and FRANCE, within the International Week of Solidarity. This comes to prove that the French press is still willing to... Continue Reading →
A horrible day for many. An unforgetable event for the world. I was 12 years old when the World Trade Center tragedy happened. I can still picture myself lying in bed with a sorrowful face.
