“For five years now…

…Kerstin has been joining us every Saturday via Zoom – and English lessons have turned into something much bigger. She encouraged us, believed in us and helped us grow step by step.

Her visit to Nepal was a gift for us. After so many years online, the first hug felt like old friends reuniting. Despite the monsoon rains, we enjoyed every minute in Kathmandu – laughing, talking, connecting.

Saying goodbye was painful, but during our first Zoom meeting afterwards, we knew: now we really know each other. And we had to laugh when we finally saw how different our heights are.

We RFL scholarship holders would like to thank Kerstin, SI Wien Vivata and all the other mentors for their support.”
